Tasting Notes
The Château Margaux 2016 is a wine of extraordinary depth and elegance, considered one of the estate’s finest creations of the modern era. It showcases a deep ruby-purple color, reflecting its concentration and aging potential.
On the nose, it exudes an opulent bouquet of blackcurrants, dark cherries, violets, tobacco, and graphite, intertwined with delicate hints of cedar, cocoa, and crushed stones.
The palate is nothing short of magnificent—full-bodied, yet refined and seamlessly structured, with silky tannins, bright acidity, and a core of vibrant fruit. Layers of blackberries, cassis, licorice, and exotic spices unfold with stunning precision, leading to an exceptionally long and complex finish. This is a remarkable, timeless Margaux that will continue to evolve gracefully for 50+ years.
