A blockbuster from Margaux is the 2015 Ch?teau Lab?gorce and I was blown away by this beauty. To reiterate, the southern M?doc, and Margaux in particular, is the sweet spot in 2015. A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and the balance Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, with close to half the blend brought up in new barrels, its deep purple color flows to a beautiful bouquet of black cherries, blueberries, spice, and violets. With medium to full-bodied richness, a plump, layered, pure texture, ripe tannin, and impressive length, it's a standout for sure. Give bottles a few years and enjoy over the following 15+
