CHÂTEAU MARGAUX
BORDEAUX, FRANCE
Some opportunities transcend the usual excitement we feel about great wine. Today's offering represents exactly that kind of moment: two legendary vintages of Château Margaux — 2005 and 2015 — each bearing perfect 100-point scores from multiple critics.
These are, quite simply, among the greatest wines produced anywhere in the world over the past half century.
And because they're coming to us directly from Margaux's cellars, with our guarantee of vigilant, hands-on care throughout the journey to your cellar, you can be assured of absolutely pristine provenance … and, as well, our usual stellar prices.
Our recent tasting of the 2015 left us nearly speechless. The way it unfolds in the glass is nothing short of magical — each sip revealing to us new colorations, new subtleties, new depths. Decanter clearly shared our enthusiasm, awarding one of four — yes, four — perfect scores and praising its “stunning “ concentration and "dense silkiness," and noting how "the stitching is seamless and perfectly pulled together.”
What captivated us most was its perfect balance of power and grace – that ineffable quality that makes Margaux, well, Margaux. (And the special etched bottle only adds to the allure.)
The 2005 shows exactly why this vintage has achieved legendary status. In our tastings, we marveled at how a wine of such concentration and persistence could remain so light on its feet. Jeb Dunnuck's perfect score encapsulates this duality. "Insanely good," he wrote of this Cabernet-predominant blend, praising its "incredible concentration" and "multi-dimensional, layered mouthfeel.” A “legendary” expression, he concluded, and only a churl would not concur.
These are the kinds of wines that remind us why Bordeaux's greatest estates have captivated collectors for centuries. They represent not just the pinnacle of what Margaux can achieve, but also what's possible in wine itself.
Whether you're adding to your collection or seeking something truly special for a momentous occasion, these wines are everything you could want. Not only do they offer immense — and immediate — pleasure, but if you should be able to resist the enormous temptation (good luck!), you can be certain of something absolutely celestial down the road.
Secure yours today — and again, rest assured that we take the utmost care in making certain that your wines will arrive from the cellars of Margaux with pristine provenance.
