Bordeaux Total René Gabriel:

Fassprobe: Konzentriertes, frisch wirkendes Beerenbouquet, schwarze Kirschen, Tabak, Lorbeer, Backpflaumen, schlank im Ansatz aber recht tief. Stoffiger Gaumen mit Fleisch und Muskeln, zeigt massive Tannine die momentan den mittelgewichtigen Körper etwas dominieren, fest und körnig im Extrakt, aufrauende Zunge und fordernde Adstringenz, Zwetschgeschalen im Finale. Der Wein ist in dieser Primeurphase noch völlig zurück geblieben und unfertig und braucht jetzt den Barriqueausbau um Süsse und noch mehr Fett zu generieren. Er wird aber ähnlich wie der 1994er werden und somit – entgegen seiner eigenen Typizität mehr Kraft und maskuline Züge aufweisen. Sicherlich ein Wein mit einem recht grossen Lagerpotential. Wenn sich die Tannine bis zur Reife noch verfeinern, kann er noch einen Punkt zulegen. Bewertung 18/20. -René Gabriel-

Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

The 2004 Chateau Margaux has always been a promising wine and here, served blind against the First Growths, it finally proved that patience is necessary when it comes to such wines. It has an exquisite bouquet with brilliant delineation, scents of redcurrant, raspberry coulis, cold stone (almost flint-like) with pencil-lead and cedar lending it a Pauillac-like sense of aristocratic flair. The palate is extremely well balanced with a supple opening, nigh perfect acidity with a surprisingly citric undercurrent that lends so much freshness and tension. While it does not have the weight and power of say, 2000, 2005 or 2009, it cruises along with utmost harmony and you become smitten by its charms - something that is perhaps in short supply among the First Growths in this vintage. This is excellent. Tasted September 2016. Drink Date 2020-2050. Rating 94/100. -Neal Martin-

Vinous:

Bright red-ruby. Knockout nose features boysenberry, currant, cedar, graphite and mocha. Suave, gentle and sweet, already displaying ineffable inner-mouth perfume. The 17% merlot component injects a silky component, and the oak element adds a complementary sweetness. Complex, lush, horizontal finish saturates the mouth with flavor. It was not clear to me in April that the 2006 would exceed this-and it will certainly take longer to reach full maturity in bottle. Rating 94/100. -Stephen Tanzer-

Jancis Robinson:

Dark ruby. First impression is mocha, and toast, becoming more savoury and tobacco leaf with air. A bit lean in the middle, very fresh, tannins feel quite tight, dry and a bit furry, the finish also rather tied up by those tannins, which are dry at the very end. Really not sure how this is going to age – the tannins seem to need more time but the fruit is already a bit slight on the mid palate. Rating 17/20. -Julia Harding-
