There is an inner-core of concentrated fruit as well as lots of tannin in this 2010, but it comes across as backward, reserved and restrained. Nevertheless, I believe there is outstanding potential from the 2010 Dauzac, it is just not as showy and flamboyant as many of its peers. This is about as masculine Margaux as one can find.

Tasted at the vertical retrospective at the property. The 2010 Chateau Dauzac, a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot, has a well-defined, precise bouquet with blackcurrant, cedar and just a touch of brown sugar. I find more "Margaux" expression here than on the 2009. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, very well balanced with more finesse than the 2009. There is so much to like about the 2010: less austere than many of its peers, precise with a tender, silky finish. This is excellent and it has the capacity to age for 15 to 20 years without too much problem. Tasted June 2015.

Fine expression of earthy yet elegant Cabernet fruit, very good structure and length, quite rich, with tannins to balance this and a very good future.
