Château Margaux 1933

A historic Margaux bottle: rarity, memory and Médoc nobility

Terroir

A First Growth of the Médoc, Château Margaux embodies one of the most refined expressions of the Margaux appellation. Born from the deep gravel soils that have shaped the estate’s reputation, this 1933 vintage now belongs to the world of very old collectible bottles, sought after as much for its rarity as for its historical significance.

At this age, each bottle must be approached with the caution and sensitivity required by old wines. The appeal of this Château Margaux 1933 lies in the memory of a great Bordeaux terroir, the nobility of its origin and the exceptional rarity of a bottle that has crossed almost a century.

Tasting notes

Nose:
Evolved and delicate, it may reveal, depending on the precise condition of the bottle, nuances of undergrowth, blond tobacco, fine leather, old spices, autumn leaves and dried fruits. Its aromatic expression should be appreciated with the particular sensitivity required by great old wines.

Palate & Finish:
The palate should be approached with delicacy: the structure may be fragile and patinated, carried by tertiary nuances and a texture softened by time. When preservation has allowed it, the finish may offer the discreet charm of great old Bordeaux wines, between finesse, a memory of fruit and faded nobility.
