Chateau Margaux 2008 Vintage Overview

2008 OVERVIEW

A silken, floral-tinged Margaux that marries pure cassis and blackberry with rose petals, graphite and a whisper of tobacco and woodsmoke. Medium to full-bodied yet effortlessly poised, it glides on fine, linen-like tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish that builds in intensity with air.

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.
