Description: Indulge in the pinnacle of fine wine with the 2019 Château Margaux Premier 1Èr Grand Cru Classé, a legendary vintage that epitomizes the grandeur and elegance of Bordeaux's renowned wine heritage. This impeccable offering from Château Margaux, a storied estate with a legacy of viticulture dating back to the 17th century, is presented in an original wooden case (OWC), ensuring its authenticity and quality.

Tasting Notes: The 2019 vintage ascends to the heights of winemaking artistry, marked by an aromatic profile of blackberries, raspberries, rose petals, violets, pencil shavings, and a hint of smoke. This full-bodied wine dazzles with its complex and sensual character, lively fruit core, and ripe, powdery tannins. A fresh, penetrating finish with a deliciously salty touch lingers with almost infinite grace and complexity. At 13.9% alcohol, it combines strength with sublime elegance.

History and Vineyard: Built in 1811, Château Margaux is one of the most iconic estates in Bordeaux, with a neo-classical façade that is as majestic as the wines it produces. The estate was one of the original four first growths identified in the 1855 Classification. Today, under the stewardship of Corinne Mentzelopoulos, the estate spans 99 hectares, with 87 hectares dedicated to red varietals. The blend reflects the vineyard’s deep commitment to quality and heritage.
