Château Haut-Tayac l’Impératrice Margaux 2021

A Margaux red Bordeaux blend in the appellation’s refined, perfumed style. The nose opens with toasted oak and ripe red fruit before unfolding into violets, blueberry and cassis, with herbal, earthy and cocoa nuances beneath. Medium-bodied and focused on the palate, built around fresh blackberry and plum with firm, ripe tannins and balanced, juicy acidity; chocolate and cherry emerge on a smoothly textured, medium-to-long finish. Already approachable, with room to develop.
