Château Margaux Premier Grand Cru Classe 2021

Château Margaux Premier Grand Cru Classé 2021 - Margaux, Bordeaux, France

A refined and powerful expression of one of Bordeaux’s most legendary First Growths, the 2021 Château Margaux combines classic Margaux elegance with both intensity and poise. The nose offers deep aromas of blackcurrant, plum, violet and graphite with hints of cedar and spice from meticulous oak ageing. On the palate it’s medium-to-full-bodied with concentrated dark fruit, beautifully integrated tannins and vibrant acidity that gives structure and lift, leading to a long, layered finish where freshness and finesse shine through. This is a seriously ageworthy wine that will reward patience in the cellar and show evolving complexity over decades. This is a special bottle indeed.
