The Story

Since the 17th Century, the first wine of Château Margaux has been recognised as being one of the greatest wines in the entire world. It owes its unique qualities to the genius of its terroir as well as to the passionate work of a succession of generations.

Wine Information

1967 Château Margaux is a very attractive vintage and a good example both of the genius of the terroir and of an era when the aim was to make wines with balance and finesse. Today, this wine shows a particularly fine, distinguished and very mature nose, possessing a lot of class. So enjoyable! On the palate, the smoothness of the texture comes through; we forget the tannins and keep our focus on the pleasure and enjoyment. Of course, the overall impression is one of a rather light wine, with perhaps some dryness in the finish, but the whole is a really pleasing wine... A very good bottle to drink now.

Top shoulder fill, ruby with brick rim. Some cardboard like cork is coming and going a bit, is it a tiny bit of cork? Aged aromas? Disappears, shows up again, still a very good wine. Leather, plums, figs, something earthy and minerals, almost salty, after ten minutes violets appears. Beautiful texture and fruit on the palate, fresh acidity and ripe tannins, elegant and with good length.
