A bottle of 1989 Chateau Margaux Premier Grand Cru Classé from Bordeaux.
'This is a dormant volcano of a wine waiting to explode with fruit. Bubbling over with flowers, blackberries, cherries and chocolate. Full-bodied, very chewy, adding masses of tannins. Long dried cherry, berry aftertaste. Very closed; needs time.--1989 Bordeaux horizontal. Best after 2009. 99/100' James Suckling, Wine Spectator, tasted 1999

We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability.
