Wine Advocate-Parker :
The 1986 Chateau Margaux is one of the dark horses of the vintage. It has an exquisite bouquet that is now fully mature, with a mixture of red and black fruit, violets, pastilles and hints of cold stone. It blossoms in the glass, gaining intensity all the time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a more robust Margaux as you would expect given the vintage, clearly with firm backbone, more straight-laced than t...

The Story

Since the 17th Century, the first wine of Château Margaux has been recognised as being one of the greatest wines in the entire world. It owes its unique qualities to the genius of its terroir as well as to the passionate work of a succession of generations. It’s a remarkable wine that comes from a combination of characteristics that are only rarely found: finesse, elegance, complexity, density, intensity, length and freshness. Although its tan...

Wine Information

At tasting, the Château Margaux 1986 shows off power and concentration at first. On the nose, the bouquet opens slowly as it grows older. The wine is both rich and balanced, similar to the 1961 vintage. It also boasts impressive breadth and richesse. The palate reveals tight, dense tannins, which slowly soften with time. This explains the incredible ageing potential of the Château Margaux 1986.

The organoleptic qualities described here are ...

Vuosikerta 1986

The very fine summer weather was hardly affected by the brief spell of rain around 20th September, which in the end, may have been more beneficial than we first thought. Immediately afterwards, the fine weather came back and stayed with us for the whole of the harvest time, bringing the grapes to superb ripeness. (The picking began 1st October)

The 1986 Margaux was about as open as this wine has ever been for me, possessing dense plum and cassis fruit, forward in its personality and more forgiving than most ‘86s I have had of late. The wine also had some noticeable oak in the nose, not offensive, yet noticeable, which is never something I would call a good thing, either. In time, the oak integrated well, however, and this was a perfumed ’86, actually charming and seductive. Make no mistake about it, there was still a very sturdy backbone of tannins and acidity behind it, but in a good posture kind of way, in that you don’t notice it until you see someone/thing without it. Mr. Margaux noted ‘flowers and earth.’ The palate was spicy, with vanilla and oak flavors most noticeable, a bit shy overall, yet its big acidity and dry tannins made their presence more known in the mouth than in the nose. Its long finish had earthy flavors, and its fruit was a bit dormant in the mouth, typical for most ‘86s at the moment. Mr. Margaux noted the ‘tannins and acid are most noticeable in ’86; it is a long-term vintage and relatively a bargain accordingly.’ He also admired the ‘elegance of the earth’ and the terroir of Margaux. The 1986 Margaux was a spiny wine, still unyielding in the mouth despite signs of charm and finishing school in the nose; it was definitely an iron fist, without the velvet glove just yet

Und direkt danach kam noch so ein perfektes Highlight in unsere Gläser. Ein gewaltiger Wein mit Kraft und Fülle, mit reifer dunkler und roter Frucht, so saftig und geradezu opulent wirkend, aber auch sehr elegant mit seidiger Textur, dazu präzise mit großartiger Struktur und immer noch massivem Rückgrat inzwischen reiferer Tannine. Blind serviert waren wir uns einig, dass dies ein sehr beeindruckender WT100 Wein war. Dieser 1986 Margaux war zusammen mit Mouton mein Favorit bei den 86er Arrival Proben 1989. Parkers 100 Punkte konnte ich damals gut nachvollziehen. Aber in den folgenden 30+ Jahren hat mich dieser Wein mit seiner eigensinnigen Art und den massiven, bissigen Tanninen teilweise zum Wahnsinn getrieben. René Gabriel, den mit diesem Wein eine innige Abneigung verband hat dazu vor 11 Jahren mal einen Verriss geschrieben (https://weingabriel.ch/archiv-20101.shtml), der mit den Worten endete „Am meisten Lustgewinn kann man hier nur erzielen, wenn man ihn auf einer Auktion verkauft.“ Was ich gottseidank nicht getan habe. Total verschlossen und unnahbar blitzte zwar manchmal das gewaltige Potential auf, aber wann würde sich dieser Wein öffnen? Ich gab die Hoffnung nicht auf und jetzt mit dieser Flasche hier war es soweit. Die berühmte Eisenfaust im Samthandschuh hatte nach 35 Jahren zu ihrer Traumform gefunden, in der dieser Wein sicherlich die nächsten 20+ Jahre brillieren wird. Klare WT100 und große Glücksgefühle bei mir, auch, weil ich davon noch seinerzeit für kleines Geld OHKs kaufen konnte, die noch unberührt bei bester Lagerung im Keller schlummern.Unglaublich. Ich weiß zwar nicht wo und wann unser Freund diese Flasche hier gekauft hatte. Möglich, dass es bei meinen Subskriptionskisten noch etwas länger dauert. Aber dieser Margaux wird jetzt oder bald seinem Status als einer der besten Margaux des letzten Jahrhunderts gerecht.

Black red colour. Cabernet Sauvignon in full blossom here, this wine is dense, strong, intense and revealing incredibly big potential! Wait and see!

Ruby, perfection on the nose, Mr.Pontallier stated that this vintage was so tightknit and tannic that it is only in the recent year or so that it has really opened up and started to shine. It is probably my favorite vintage in the 80's, I find so many of them with a stunning fruit, still very youthfull expression with a fantastic texture, this one no different. Youthfull, elegant, floral, so complex and layered I'm lost for words. Nothing jumps out again, red and darker berries, some tobacco and fine leather, ripe tannins, pure, and gorgeous length.

Bordeaux Book, 4th Edition 
Jan 2003		 Robert M. Parker, Jr. 98 Drink: 2003 - 2050 $548-$1043
A magnificent example of Chateau Margaux and one of the most tannic, backward Margauxs of the last 50 years, the 1986 continues to evolve at a glacial pace. The color is still a dense ruby/purple with just a hint of lightening at the rim. With several hours of aeration, the aromatics become striking, with notes of smoke, toast, creme de cassis, mineral, and white flowers. Very full-bodied, with high but sweet tannin, great purity, and a very masculine, full-bodied style, this wine should prove nearly immortal in terms of its aging potential. It is beginning to budge from its infantile stage and approach adolescence. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2050. Last tasted, 12/02.
