Château Margaux 是該產區的象徵，在 1855 年波爾多分級制度中被列為一級莊（Premier Grand Cru Classé）。酒莊的歷史可追溯至十二世紀，並在十六世紀逐漸成形，如今由 Corinne Mentzelopoulos 掌舵。
除了身為一級酒莊的地位之外，酒莊更被譽為「波爾多的女王」，不僅因其葡萄酒而聞名，也因其恆久優雅的建築與深厚的文化氣息而備受推崇。
目前，酒莊擁有 82 公頃的葡萄園，坐落於礫石與黏土石灰岩土壤之上。以Cabernet Sauvignon 為主，並輔以 Merlot、Petit Verdot 及 Cabernet Franc。葡萄藤平均樹齡約 40 年，採收至今仍以人手完成，延續傳統與精準。
Château Margaux 的葡萄酒以細緻、芳香馥郁及卓越的陳年潛力聞名。年輕時已展現豐富層次，隨著歲月更能演化出深邃複雜與優雅風格，堪稱波爾多最具代表性的佳釀之一。
2014 年份，酒莊僅精選收成中最佳的 36% 葡萄來釀造正牌酒，充分展現酒莊對卓越品質的堅持。

醒酒 5 到 10 分鐘後，香氣與橡木桶陳釀時非常相似 —— 黑櫻桃和紫羅蘭，香氣起初略為緊緻，但隨著每一次搖杯逐漸舒展，愈加迷人。酒體中等，單寧非常細膩，經過陳釀過程似乎更添優雅。餘韻悠長，帶有美妙的礦物感和一絲辛香。酒體略顯緊實，暗示這是一款能帶來長久愉悅的Château Margaux。因此，不妨將它窖藏十年。

Cabernet Sauvignon 純淨的果香令人印象深刻。細緻而充滿活力的李子和黑加侖子香氣貫穿始終，與美妙和諧的果香完美融合，餘韻悠長。灌木叢和淡淡泥土氣息增添複雜度，餘韻縈繞數分鐘不散。
Château Margaux is the undisputed symbol of its appellation, ranked Premier Grand Cru Classé in the historic 1855 classification. With origins in the 12th century and shaped into its modern identity in the 16th, it is today under the stewardship of Corinne Mentzelopoulos.
Beyond this status, Château Margaux is celebrated as the ‘Queen of Bordeaux’, admired not only for its wines but also for its timeless architecture and cultural resonance.
Today, the estate covers 82 hectares of gravelly clay-limestone soils, planted predominantly with Cabernet Sauvignon alongside Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The vines average around 40 years of age, and harvesting is still carried out by hand, preserving tradition and precision.
Renowned for finesse, aromatic richness and longevity, Château Margaux offers generosity in youth and profound complexity with age, standing as one of Bordeaux’s greatest wines.
In the 2014 vintage, only about 36% of the harvest — the finest grapes — were selected for the Grand Vin, reflecting Château Margaux’s unwavering commitment to quality.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 95 points)
Affording the glass five to ten minutes to open, the aromatics are very similar to those expressed out of barrel, those dark cherries and violets, tightly wound at first but unfurling beautifully and seemingly with each swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin and it appears to have fomented a little more finesse during its élevage. There is wonderful mineral tension and dash of spiciness on the persistent finish. There remains some tightness here, the implication that this is a Château Margaux determined to give long-term pleasure. Therefore, do not be afraid to give it a decade in the cellar.

The purity of cabernet sauvignon fruit is what impresses here. Subtle and energetic plum and currant aromas follow through to a gorgeously harmonized palate of wonderful fruit and an ultra-long finish. Current bush and light earth adds to the complexity. Lasts for minutes.
