"Vin de Prince, it is velvet, seduction and mystery. It is the most Proustian of the great wines: under the secret perfume of a rose petal, barely faded, of a Romanée-Conti 1956, is it not the intense and pure sensation of Time Regained that invades us? Could it be that the gods have left us a souvenir in this square of land? The fascinating trace of a timeless perfection?

It owes its unique qualities to the genius of its terroir and the passionate work of a succession of generations. It is a remarkable wine that comes from a combination of characteristics rarely found: finesse, elegance, complexity, density, intensity, length and freshness. Although its tannic concentration is often exceptional, it is rare to detect astringency.

The great vintages are distinguished by their formidable capacity to move us. Smaller vintages are the delight of discerning wine lovers. They have the advantage of evolving more quickly and, after a few years, they reveal, in the absence of power, the subtlety that is the prerogative of the great terroirs.

Château Margaux has an extraordinary capacity for evolution. Over the years, it has developed remarkable finesse, aromatic complexity and presence on the palate.
