Château Margaux 2008 (1.5L)

Château Margaux developed early into one of the great wine estates of Bordeaux. The monumental château from the early nineteenth century became a recognisable image of the appellation. In 1855 Margaux was recognised as premier grand cru classé. A new period began in 1977 with the purchase by André Mentzelopoulos, and his daughter Corinne continued the restoration and development. Today Alexis Leven-Mentzelopoulos represents the third generation. The vineyards around the château lie on gravel soils, where Cabernet Sauvignon plays a leading role. The 2008 vintage is offered in a 75cl bottle.
