Chateau Labergorge 1994

Margaux, Cru Bourgeois from what I can figure out. This wine was a gift from friend Larissa and, as she was in Brisbane last night for work, I decided to bring it along when we caught up with her for dinner.

First glass felt a little fruit-light, with aromas and tastes of stalk and caramelly oak predominating. Finish was a little drying too, although tannins were very refined. As we progressed through the meal (and the bottle), the wine opened up and the middle palate filled in with lovely soft red berry fruits. Medium bodied, with an overall impression of well structured softness. Nice wine.
