CHATEAU MARGAUX 1er Grand Cru Classe, Margaux 2025 Wooden Case x 3 Bottles (UCz) - PRE-RELEASE

Description

Château Margaux, a Premier Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux, is one of the most famous wines in the world. Winemaker Philippe Bascaules has produced a refined and expressive Margaux this vintage.

"The 2025 vintage at Château Margaux is defined by precision, patience and exceptionally low yields. Cropped at just 22 hl/ha, one of the smallest harvests in recent history, the estate navigated a challenging growing season with remarkable success.

Timely rainfall at the end of August moderated potential alcohol levels and allowed Managing Director Philippe Bascaules and his team to delay harvesting until optimal phenolic ripeness was achieved. Rigorous parcel selection and vinification have produced wines of exceptional balance, purity and refinement. The resulting Grand Vin captures the elegance and aromatic complexity that define this First Growth, reflecting the decisions that shaped the vintage." Ryan Brown, CEO - DIVA Bordeaux.

Tasting: The bouquet is vibrant and aromatic, with notes of cassis, raspberry, black cherry and violet. On the palate, the wine shows remarkable concentration with a vivid freshness and a distinctive mineral edge. The tannins are silky and well integrated, offering a seamless texture that leads into a long, elegant finish. Classic and harmonious.
