Château Bel Air-Marquis d'Aligre

Margaux 

2010 Château Bel Air-Marquis d'Aligre

APR 19 Ruby. Scented, red berries, cassis, light vanilla note, some violets. Quite light. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, anise, red berries, cassis, lighter, good length. This is rustic and thin. 87

2004 Château Bel Air-Marquis d'Aligre

MAY 19 Ruby, garnet rim. Old school nose, dates, figs, raisins, mature for its age, leather nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, anise, figs, dates, spices, a bit staccato on the palate, things are going on but not in full harmony, rustic stuff. Quite boring. So old school you might not appreciate it. I don't. 85

MAY 19 Ruby. Boiled fruits, oxidised, liquorice, flat palate. This is not recommended. 82

APR 19 Ruby, garnet rim. Scented, blueberries, anise, mint, detailed, some figs and fruit notes nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, anise, blueberries, figs, dates and spices, tobacco, detailed, nuanced, long. 93

1995 Château Bel Air-Marquis d'Aligre

MAY 19 Ruby, garnet rim. Some prunes, figs, dates, leather and cherries nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fresh, lean, rustic, lacks some body, structured behind, good length. Not impressed. 86
