Description

A benchmark of refinement and one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated First Growths, Château Margaux 2016 embodies absolute precision, elegance and depth. The vintage is exceptional, delivering a wine of remarkable purity and balance, where every element is perfectly aligned.

The nose is intensely aromatic yet beautifully delicate, revealing layers of blackcurrant, violet, rose petals, cedar and fine spices. On the palate, it is seamless and poised, with ultra-fine tannins and a silky texture that carries a core of vibrant, perfectly ripe fruit. The structure is powerful but weightless, leading to an extraordinarily long, graceful finish that defines true Margaux elegance.

This is a wine of quiet power and aristocratic finesse, built to evolve over decades while already offering a glimpse of its extraordinary complexity.

Food Pairing: Beef fillet, lamb, game, truffle dishes and refined French cuisine.

Cabernet Sauvignon (94%)
Cabernet Franc (3%)
Merlot (2%)
Petit Verdot (1%).
