Château Margaux 1cc. 2021 1,5l
Château Margaux, classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé, is a true icon of the Médoc. Its historic vineyard covers around 80–82 hectares planted mainly with Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot on deep gravel over clay-limestone subsoils. Each parcel is vinified separately and only the finest lots are selected for the Grand Vin, which ages in a high proportion of new French oak. The bouquet combines cassis, red and black berries, violets, cedar, tobacco and fine spice. On the palate Château Margaux is silky and profound yet almost weightless, with precise freshness, ultra-fine tannins and an exceptionally long, multi-layered finish.
Ageing in new oak for 18 to 24 months gives this Premier Cru depth, structure and a noble oak frame.
