The 2016 Margaux appellation is not quite at the same level as the other worldly 2015, but for many chateaux, it is quite close. The wines are elegant, stylish and everything you want from a Margaux wine.
There are years when the white Bordeaux wine outperforms the red wines for example, most recently, 2013, 2011 and 2007. 2016 is not going to one of those vintages. That does not mean one should overlook some of these wines, as they can offer near term, delicious drinking.
With 2018 Bordeaux, all of the wines are deeply colored. You will find wines ranging from opulent and sensual, to powerful, full bodied or light, fresh, crisp wines. If the vineyards coped with the dry summer, chances are they made good wine.
The best wines of the vintage are not reliant on concentration. Instead, they focus on elegance, finesse and charm. The top 2019 Margaux wines are extremely aromatic. You find loads of floral scents, silky tannins and sexy, sensuous textures with a gorgeous sense of purity in the fruits as well.
2020 Cotes de Bordeaux are just great! They offer some of the best value wines…
Bordeaux AOC wines are the textbook example of wines of pleasure. They drink well early, are inexpensive easy to enjoy. In 2020, if you know where to look, they can offer value and fun drinking.
