Château Margaux 2004

A refined First Growth: balance, freshness and Margaux elegance

Terroir

A First Growth classified in 1855, Château Margaux remains one of the absolute references of the Médoc. Its deep, well-draining gravel soils allow Cabernet Sauvignon to express rare finesse, great aromatic precision and the floral elegance that defines the finest wines of the Margaux appellation.

The 2004 vintage offers a classical, fresh and particularly refined expression of Château Margaux. Less solar than the most concentrated years, it is defined by balance, precision and elegance. This is a wine of distinction, favouring finesse, purity of fruit and noble texture over immediate power.

Tasting notes

Nose:
The bouquet may reveal notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, violet, cedar, graphite, blond tobacco and fine spices. With age, nuances of noble undergrowth, dried flowers and delicate leather emerge in a subtle and harmonious register.

Palate & Finish:
The palate is straight, silky and beautifully balanced, carried by fine tannins, freshness and an elegant texture. The finish lingers with precision on dark fruit, cedar, gentle spices and a discreet floral touch, offering a classical and refined expression of Château Margaux.
