2019 Chateau Margaux - Margaux
2019 Château Margaux, Margaux
A First Growth for the ages, the 2019 Château Margaux stands among the finest expressions the estate has produced this decade. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (90%), with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot rounding out the blend, it was assembled from just 37% of the harvest. The wine soars from the glass with blackberry, raspberry, rose petal, violet, and pencil shavings, unfolding full-bodied and sensual on the palate, framed by ripe, powdery tannins and bright acidity, and finishing with a penetrating, saline persistence. Deep, layered, and effortlessly balanced, this is Margaux's iron fist in a velvet glove at its most complete.
