Review: The great thing about the Margaux appelation is that I am always finding new treasures. This wine was rated one of the best wines under $50 and I agree. Laurent Vonderheyden has created an elegant wine, complex with hints of plum and a tobacco aroma. Not an intense wine, much more subtle with a medium palette
Price: $39
Grade: 90

I tend to agree. At first it seemed to offer little; the nose seemed earthy at first, but a little aeration caused it to soon develop some style. The palate finds a degree of elegance, with firm texture and appropriate acidity. Truly a delicious value.
Oh, dear. There was a slight mix-up with my glasses, and I just inadvertently reviewed the new Cherry Zima. Please disregard.
