The 1996 Chateau Margaux, a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, must be a strong contender for wine of the vintage. It offers everything you desire from this First Growth. It is blessed with breathtaking delineation and freshness on the nose, understated at first and then blossoming with mineral-infused black fruit, hints of blueberry, crushed stone and violet. The palate is perfectly balanced with filigree tannin, perfect acidity, a wine where everything seems to be in its right place. Blackberry, crushed stone at the front of the mouth, just a touch of spice towards the finish that shows supreme control. This is a Margaux that seems to light up the senses. It was outstanding in its youth...something that has not changed one bit over the intervening two decades. This may well turn out to be the Left Bank pinnacle of the 1990s. Tasted July 2016.
Chateau Margaux is known for exceptional Bordeaux with staggering consistency. Director Paul Pontallier has been at the estate for over 30 years, overseeing numerous legendary vintages. Fittingly the Chateau is one of the grandest and most imposing, nicknamed ‘the Versailles of the Medoc.’ They have always had a rich history but their current dominance began when it was purchased by the Mentzelopoulos family in 1977, bringing huge investment.
