Chateau Margaux Cabernet Blend 1993
A sumptuous, firm and savoury claret with a wild, smoky, bonfire-like bouquet of briary fruit and charry oak. It’s marvellously long and complete, with wonderfully integrated oak and a firm, powdery spine of tightly-knit tannin. For the long term.

Chateau Margaux
One of the stellar chateaux of the left bank of Bordeaux, Chateau Margaux was one of the five recognised First Growths of the 1855 Classification. Unquestionably the star performer within the commune of Margaux, its wines typically reflect an elegance and refinement, plus a balance and completeness that enables them to cellar superbly for many decades. The chateau draws from 80ha of red varieties (75% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 2% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot) and also has 12 ha planted to sauvignon blanc for its Pavillon Blanc, one of the finest white crafted in Bordeaux.
