Château Margaux 1949, from the gravel soils of Margaux, is a powerful and concentrated wine. This vintage, aged in oak barrels, reveals blackcurrant, truffle and violet. On the palate, firm tannins and a mineral finish. Ideal with red meats or aged cheeses.
Château Margaux
Nestled in the heart of the Médoc, this iconic estate has embodied the excellence of Bordeaux wines for centuries.
- Terroir: Gravel and clay-limestone soils of the Margaux appellation, shaping wines of mineral elegance and rare depth.
- Vinification: A precise blend of noble grape varieties, aged in new oak barrels for a structure that is both powerful and silky.
Tasting notes for Château Margaux 1949
To the eye: A deep red robe, still dense and vibrant, with garnet reflections that betray a preserved youth despite the passing decades.
On the nose: Aromas of ripe blackcurrant, faded violet and black truffle, lifted by a touch of aged leather and a subtle chalky, almost saline note.
On the palate: A velvety texture, carried by tannins that are still firm yet silky, a lively acidity and a persistent minerality that stretches into a long, slightly spiced finish.
Serve at 18°C in a Bordeaux glass to unlock its full complexity.
Vintage 1949
A vintage marked by exceptional heat, where the concentration of the grapes gave birth to a wine of rare power.
- Ageing potential: Ready to enjoy now, with optimal cellaring in a cool, humid cellar, away from light.
