For over five centuries, Château Margaux has defined luxury in Bordeaux—crafting wines so refined they seem plucked from a legend. Owned by the Mentzelopoulos family since 1977, this Premier Grand Cru Classé estate fuses art and science, from carefully selected terroir and gravelly soils to pioneering techniques like separate red/white vinification and nocturnal harvesting. The winery’s flagship red, the Grand Vin, delivers an ethereal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, offering velvety elegance, aromatic finesse, and a structure worthy of time in the cellar. Under Corinne Mentzelopoulos and the late Paul Pontallier, Margaux reclaimed its status as a collectible icon, with vintages like 2015 and 2019 earning perfect scores and homage editions in dramatic black bottles—liquid silk wrapped in prestige.
