Château des Eyrins Margaux 2020
This new Margaux is an intensely powerful winner that possesses a strong personality for such an affordable Bordeaux. A complex nose of cigar box, baking spices, and rich leather lead into a silky texture featuring plums, black cherry, and hints of olive tappenade balanced with an underlying elegance synonymous with powerful reds of the Left Bank. The bold fruit and deftly balanced tannins make this one of the most age-worthy Bordeaux at this humble price tag. Decant prior to 2025 and drink over the next 10+ years.
