100 100James SucklingThe aromas in this young Margaux are so primary, reminding me of grape must fermenting in the vat, then turning to perfumes and flowers. Violets and roses. Full-bodied but it comes across as so agile and bright, with vivid acidity that makes the wine crunchy and linear. As Alexis, one of the owners of Margaux said, this really shows the DNA of the estate. Weightless. One of the wines of the vintage. 3.6 pH. Blend of 89% cabernet sauvignon, 5% merlot, 4% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot.

98 100Yves Beck89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot Margaux reveals itself with the subtlety and attention to detail for which it is renowned. It expresses great freshness, red berries, spices, black tea and a hint of blackcurrant. On the palate, the wine is serene, a little reserved from an aromatic point of view. The wine is dense and becomes more muscular as it ages. It owes its muscular character to the tannins, which are a little firm and, paradoxically, soft, but not at all hard and, above all, in phase with the tension provided by the acidity structure. This is clearly a wine of finesse, straightforward, while elegance will emerge with ageing. A subtle wine with a persistent, salivating finish. Very authentic, this is a Château Margaux ready to defy the decades! 2030-2065

98 100Alexandre MaI can hardly fathom how someone could craft a wine with 89% Cabernet Sauvignon so tenderly affectionate. Château Margaux 2023 is like countless skirt pleats carved onto white marble, embodying the epitome of minimalist white and ultimate beauty. Its aroma is reserved yet profound, with wafts of violet and sandalwood lending a touch of mystery, while the sweet blueberries and mulberries offer a sense of softness and warmth. Notably, Château Margaux 2023 possesses a “salty taste” not found in previous vintages, akin to fleur de sel sprinkled on a top-quality beef steak, elevating the entire palate.

97 100Jean-Marc QuarinDark, violet and lively colour. The nose is very aromatic, fine, fruity, subtle and noble, with depth and a floral note of violets. The entry is extremely meticulous, delicate, subtle and airy in the middle, the wine becomes dense, juicy and fragrant, with a fine touch. It has a long finish with notes of black fruits. A great wine! Blend: 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Alcohol content: 13°1 - pH: 3.6. Selection: 41% of the harvest.
Gorgeous purplish purple.
Fine, fruity, very aromatic. Aromas of blackberry, cherry and peppermint.
Velvety, tasty and noble. The wine has body, but the tannins are incredibly fine. Very nice length.
Surprising with cod or Chinese cuisine, red meats, roast poultry, goat cheese.
Serving temperature: 16 - 18°C
The vines, inclined on a gentle slope in a sort of amphitheater, are established on a gravelly and clayey ridge of fluvial origin (abundant gravel at the top, the bottom of the ridge being composed of limestone and finer elements due to runoff) .
Vatting for 3 weeks in oak vases, aging for 18 to 24 months in new oak barrels.
