Château Margaux
The very highest quality has never been the outcome of mere chance. To achieve it in a great wine calls for a generous soil, a favourable climate and the dedicated, impassioned attention of the hand of man. Château Margaux enjoys a uniquely favoured situation, where a particular kind of perfection asserts itself with exemplary forcefulness, both in the estate as well as in all its surroundings. This perfection is the outcome both of natural advantages and of the care lavished on the property by a line of owners with an abiding concern for the reputation of the estate. For many centuries these families have succeeded each other - from the Lestonnacs, the true founding dynasty, to the Mentzelopoulos family today - striving still further to enhance that reputation. All have defended the image and quality linked to the name "Margaux". A special tribute is due here to the late André Mentzelopoulos, who from 1978 succeeded in giving a renewed impetus to Château Margaux. A cru of such renown cannot be allowed to suffer even the slightest decline in standards. There is a constant need for vision - to watch over, to improve, to look ahead and to innovate. Here splendour is born of the continuous, joint efforts of the very finest craftsmen. Outdoors, the vineyard-workers. In the cellars, the many skills involved in winemaking. For more than five hundred years, season after season, generations of vineyard-workers, grapeharvesters, cellar-workers, coopers and many other craftsmen have all played a part in making Château Margaux what it is today: a wine with an incomparable personality, reflected in the elegant Palladian building which adorns its label. Nowhere else has so ideal a marriage been made between a wine of such distinction and its magnificent setting. Visit the Château Margaux website.

Château Margaux 1999 shows great finesse, intensity and aromatic complexity. The nose has both great purity and great classicism. On the palate, it has firstly delicacy and suppleness, then fatness and density, before finishing with great length, displaying the real power of the wine. more
