RATINGS

91The Wine Advocate

(Neal Martin's Wine Journal) ...classic mature Claret that is delectable… graphite, sous-bois & tobacco... still fresh & beautifully defined... a sense of natural balance... beguiling tertiary & cedar notes towards the finish. Wonderful.

...about 45 minutes to reach perfection.

Margaux is one of Bordeaux’s most famous appellations and also one of its largest, with about 3,400 acres of vineyards. Located on the Left Bank of the Gironde River, Margaux has the greatest number of classified-growth châteaux (or crus classé) according to the 1855 classification. There are twenty-one crus classé, including the most famous estate, the first growth Château Margaux. The Margaux appellation includes vineyards around the village of Margaux and the villages of Arsac, Cantenac, d’Issan, Labarde and Soussans.
