Château Margaux 1988
Born on the clay-limestone gravels of Margaux, the Château Margaux 1988 is an exceptional Premier Grand Cru Classé. This red wine, with notes of blackcurrant and violet, captivates with its silky structure and vibrant minerality. Already fully open, it pairs beautifully with game or a matured cheese.

Tasting notes for Château Margaux 1988
To the eye – A garnet red robe with tawny highlights, dense and silky, betraying a harmonious maturity and a velvety structure.
On the nose – First notes of ripe blackcurrant and fresh violet, followed by a touch of cedar, blonde tobacco and a mineral hint reminiscent of the damp chalk of Margaux soils.
On the palate – A precise and taut attack, where the melted tannins envelop a lively acidity, while a saline and persistent finish hints at aromas of liquorice and undergrowth.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full elegance.
1988 Vintage
A vintage marked by slow ripening and a dry summer, yielding structured wines yet less austere than 1986, with a beautiful harmony already apparent today.
- Ageing potential : To be enjoyed until 2030–2035, to be stored in a cool cellar (12–14°C) and kept away from light.
