Chateau Margaux 1982 Vintage Overview

1982 OVERVIEW

Silky yet powerful, 1982 Château Margaux layers ripe blackcurrant and red berry fruit with hints of warm fig, mocha and sweet spice, all framed by exquisitely fine but still present tannins. The wine feels regal rather than showy, its concentration and depth carried on a long, graceful finish that speaks more of the château’s timeless class than of the vintage’s exuberance. This is a benchmark mature Margaux, seductive, complex and still vibrantly alive in the glass.

About Chateau Margaux

Château Margaux (the Grand Vin) is the Premier Grand Cru Classé red of the Margaux appellation, a Cabernet Sauvignon–led blend famed for its perfume, finesse and silky tannins. Drawn from the estate’s deep, well‑drained gravel with clay‑limestone subsoils on Bordeaux’s Left Bank, it marries elegance and intensity with remarkable longevity, embodying the quintessential Margaux style crafted by Château Margaux.
