"Le domaine signe avec son 2012 un margaux harmonieux, qui s'exprime plus en finesse qu'en puissance. Au nez, il conjugue de discrètes et fines notes toastées, épicées et fruitées (cerise, cassis). En bouche, il séduit par son côté suave et charmeur, par sa structure souple et soyeuse, par sa longue finale, certes un peu plus austère mais qui reste très courtoise."
Tasting notes
Appearance
Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.
Aroma
For the Margaux appellation, we find black fruits, such as blackcurrant or blackcurrant, sometimes cooked, and an empyreumatic that gives off aromas of roasted coffee or licorice.
Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Roasted
Taste
On the palate the best Margaux are those who have perfectly integrated their tannins in their structure, giving roundness. We find the aromas of the nose namely black fruits and tertiary flavors such as leather, vanilla.

cost de cœur, a fresh and pleasant wine, round and soft on the palate, with a light body and not too much wood, with a medium level of complexity.
