Aromatically, the wine serves up a blast of licorice, black cherry, smoke, flowers, espresso and chocolate covered cherries. On the palate, the wine tastes and feels oaky, which at close to 17, worries me. There is a lushness to texture, silky tannins, and plenty of sweet, ripe, cherries. But but the level of oak is on the border.

Here's something you do not see everyday, a Garage styled wine from the Left Bank! showing well, with its licorice, tobacco, black cherry, cocoa and liqueur charms. Soft, open, east to drink, it could develop more secondary characteristics, but it does not need additional cellaring at this point. This 500 case production was consulted by Jean Luc Thunevin.

This offers an intriguing perfume of truffle, earth, mocha, black berry and black cherry scents. This is a very sexy style of Margaux that combines plush, opulent textures with ripe, round fruit.

When to Drink Chateau Marojallia, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau Marojallia can be enjoyed on the young side with decanting. Young vintages can be decanted for an average of 2-3 hours, give or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.

Chateau Marojallia is usually better with at least 7-8 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage character. Chateau Marojallia offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 10-25 years of age after the vintage.

Serving Marojallia, with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips

Marojallia is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.

Marojallia is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes. Marojallia is a perfect match with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta as well as cheese.
