Anson: Margaux 2011 vs 2012 – How the wines taste now

They're much better than originally billed, they're ready for drinking and you can find them in the shops; Jane Anson reports on a re-tasting of Margaux appellation wines from 2011 and 2012 and offers advice on bottles to look for.

This has been one of the most interesting and enjoyable tastings of recent months; the entire appellation of Margaux wines over two supposed ‘off’ vintages, Bordeaux 2011 and 2012, that are both coming into their drinking window right now.
