Château Margaux

Château Margaux, a Premier Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux, is one of the most famous wines in the world. Care has been lavished on the property by a line of owners with an abiding concern for the reputation of the estate. For more than five hundred years, season after season, generations of vineyard-workers, grape harvesters, cellar-workers, coopers and many other craftsmen have all played a part in making Château Margaux what it is today: a wine with an incomparable personality, reflected in the elegant Palladian building which adorns its label. In 1977, the estate was purchased by the late André Mentzelopoulos, and it is now run by his daughter, Corinne Mentzelopoulos.
Winemaker Philippe Bascaules has produced a refined and expressive Margaux. The bouquet is vibrant and aromatic, with notes of cassis, raspberry, black cherry and violet. On the palate, the wine shows remarkable concentration with a vivid freshness and a distinctive mineral edge. The tannins are silky and well integrated, offering a seamless texture that leads into a long, elegant finish. Classic and harmonious
Harvest 10th - 29th September with a yield of only 22 hl/ha. The Grand Vin accounts for 37% of the crop. Aged in 100% new oak barrels. Alc 13.8%.
