Margaux du Chateau Margaux 2014
The Winery
Château Margaux
Château Margaux is a jewel in the Medoc region of Bordeaux and is quintessential example of elegance, luxury, and balance that the rest of the world seeks. A high percentage of Merlot is blended with a Cabernet Sauvignon base compared to other First Growths and the soils are thin and gravely, producing a more feminine wine of strong aromas of dark berries, fine tannins, and a lengthy finish. The dramatic Château was declared an original First Growth during the 1855 Classification and has been a premier example of the potential of Bordeaux ever since.
Summary
Margaux du Château Margaux 2014 represents the estate’s third wine, crafted from younger vines and lots not selected for the Grand Vin. This Bordeaux blend predominantly features Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot and a hint of Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, and has been aged for about a year in mostly used French oak. The wine showcases vibrant blackcurrant and plum aromas, with earthy and herbal nuances contributing to its complexity. The palate is finely structured with soft, polished tannins and a refreshing acidity. While vibrant and fruit-forward, it holds a classic restraint, promising an elegant evolution over the years. The blend consists of approximately 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with the remainder from other varietals.
