I would recommend a 2000, which is a blockbuster Bordeaux year. The 2000 Ch. Margeaux received a 100 pt rating.

According to Château Margaux site, "it has sometimes been said that 1959 was the last great vintage of a bygone age; 1961 being the first one in the modern era."
Take a look and compare the millésimes...
