Final of Appellation Margaux 2008

This final took place in February 2020 at Pascale and Luc’s home in Sucy en Brie.

Here is the list of the ten wines tested:

  • Brane Cantenac
  • D’Issan
  • Durfort Vivens
  • Du Tertre
  • Ferrière
  • Giscours
  • Lascombes
  • Malescot St Exupéry
  • Palmer
  • Rauzan-Ségla

We witnessed a very tight game between Lascombes and D’Issan. All in power and concentration. Did the final licorice notes of Lascombes make the “little” difference? Malescot St Exupéry completes the podium, perhaps penalized by a little too much wood.

Here are the results of the tasting:
