Chateau Boyd-Cantenac 2014, Margaux (1x75cl)

Margaux is the Bordeaux commune people usually reach for when they want something a bit more perfumed and less heavy-handed than the rest of the left bank. This 2014 has had roughly a decade in bottle, which normally means the edges have started to settle without the wine losing its fruit.

Good for a dinner where you want a bottle that behaves well with red meat and roast dishes, and easy to give as a gift because Margaux is a name most people in Hong Kong already know. Free delivery over HK$800, flat HK$80 below that, usually 2-5 business days.

Tasting notes

Margaux reds typically lead with violets and dark cherry over a fine, dusty tannin frame, with cedar and pencil shavings showing as they age.
