MARGAUX 1998

[wondersofwine]

Welcome to the board. That's a generous friend! Robert Parker's vintage chart lists this as still tannic and youthful--need to hold longer (maybe 4 years?) It was rated as an above average vintage for Margaux wines but not an outstanding vintage.
I'm not sure of the price. If you are talking about the real first growth, Chateau Margaux Grand Cru Classe (not just a wine from the Margaux district in France), I would venture a guess of about $250-$300 based on what some other 1998 Bordeaux cost and a price of $575 for a bottle of 1983 Chateau Margaux (more mature and considered an outstanding vintage).
