Wine Expert Note:

This Château La Gurgue Margaux is a medium-bodied French red wine, with a deep ruby color. On the nose, it has intense aromas of ripe black cherries and fresh red berries, as well as hints of earthy spices and pencil lead. On the palate, it offers supple tannins and medium acidity. It has a nice balance of fruit and earthy flavors, with a long finish of spice and leather. It's a great example of a classic Margaux and should be enjoyed over the next 15 years.
