Instant sommelier profiles. No account needed.
Margaux, Haut-Médoc · Bordeaux, France
Full-bodied with extraordinary concentration. Velvet tannins, impeccable acidity, and a finish that lingers for over sixty seconds. Cabernet Sauvignon dominates at 87%, lending backbone and that distinctive pencil-shaving minerality.
The 2018 is not merely a great Margaux — it is a generational statement. Opulence held in perfect discipline; the kind of bottle you open for a moment, not a meal.
