About this Item
Château Margaux is one of Bordeaux's most famous wine estates, located just east of Margaux itself in the Médoc. Along with Lafite, Latour and Haut-Brion, it was rated as a First Growth in the original 1855 Bordeaux Classification of the Médoc. Generally, Margaux is considered as the most elegant of the First Growths, and is consistently one of the most expensive wines in the world.
Critics Ratings
‘Very sleek, with a lovely winey edge to the plum, cassis and blackberry fruit, laced with roasted apple wood, lilac and singed iron notes. Tangy and lengthy, with ample depth, but also nearly approachable now. Best from 2013 through 2023’ - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Mar 2012)
‘Very rich, dense, pushing great blackberry fruits and ripe tannins. As always on the level of a classed growth.’ - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 93/100 (Mar 2011)
