What the critics say
97 WAWine Advocate, William Kelley, 22-09-2022
On this occasion, the 1947 Château Margaux outshone even the prodigious 1947 Mouton. Offering up a decadent mélange of aromas including ripe blackberries, sweet spices, dried rose petals, licorice and sweet soil tones, it's full-bodied, fleshy and textural, with a sweet, layered core of fruit framed by ripe, powdery tannins that are still not entirely melted. Deep and multidimensional, it's a seamless, sensual wine of immense appeal. Harvest at Margaux began on September 16, 1947, very early by the standards of the period. In the estate's internal ranking system at the time, the team awarded the 1947 vintage four out of five stars.

The 1947 Château Margaux is a supremely gifted post-war First Growth. My first encounter was my own bottle at what can only be described as a bibulous dinner. It displays a Graves-like character and so much freshness and brio. A second bottle affirms its greatness, one of the highlights of a memorable horizontal held at The Square. It is an atypically hubristic Margaux that captures the nose with hints of toffee and dark chocolate. The palate, however, is much more prevision and sensual, quite mineral-driven toward the delineated finish. Wonderful. Last tasted in April 2013.
