2020 Margaux De Brane

90 POINTS

James Suckling

This has aromas of blackberries, blackcurrant leaves, sage and graphite. Sliced orange too. Medium to full body, with firm, fine-grained tannins. Compact and savory. Better in 2025.

The 2020 Margaux de Brane is a plush, succulent Margaux to drink now and over the next handful of years. It's a gorgeous wine at this level. Spice, blood orange and mint give this mid-weight, open-knit 2020 tons of energy to play off its ripe, racy fruit.

Neal Martin - Vinous

The 2020 Margaux de Brane, which comes from the estate's youngest vines, has a generous kirsch and mulberry scented bouquet. The palate is medium-bodied with notes of espresso and dark chocolate infusing the dark berry fruit. Fine acidity, slightly grainy in texture, for a third wine it has respectable weight and concentration on the off-dry finish. Worth seeking out.
