About this wine

Château Margaux’s grand vin is a blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon. It is famed for its elegance: silky, fragrant and layered rather than heavy, while still built to age for decades in great years.

About Margaux

Château Margaux is the First Growth of the Margaux appellation and one of the four estates ranked First Growth in 1855. Its neoclassical château, built in the early nineteenth century, is one of the best-known sights in Bordeaux. The Mentzelopoulos family bought the estate in 1977 and restored it to the very top rank.

The estate is known for red wines of great finesse and perfume, and for Pavillon Blanc, one of the Médoc’s few great white wines.
