Tasting notes

Château Margaux's 1900 vintage is like a historical artifact from Bordeaux. It's crafted with traditional Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, capturing the classic French style. It's incredible how this wine has retained its allure over a century later.

This wine makes its appearance in Volume 15 of 'The Drops of God'. Kiryu brought it to Shizuku, likening it to Cleopatra's palace—talk about making an impression! It was chosen to convey the magnificence of a wine aged over 100 years, and it totally delivers.

Just look at that color—deep garnet with an orange-tinted rim. You can really sense the passage of time. The aroma is wonderfully complex, with notes of matured dark fruits, tea, and sous bois. Take a sip, and you'll find silky tannins spreading across your palate, with smooth acidity. There's a depth of fruitiness interwoven with complex spice nuances.

And the finish? It's incredibly long, one of the highlights of this wine. Drinking it feels like a journey through time. Serve it slightly chilled in a large glass to fully appreciate its depth.
