Château Margaux 1982 is a significant release from one of Bordeaux`s esteemed First Growth estates. This vintage is characterised by its deep, saturated colour and pronounced aromatics. Expect distinct notes of blackcurrant, graphite and subtle oak, alongside hints of tobacco and earthiness. The full-bodied structure reveals well-integrated tannins, providing a compelling drinking experience. This 300cl format offers longevity, promising enjoyment for decades to come.

The 1982 Chateau Margaux has a pale to medium garnet-brick color. It hits the ground running with fragrant notes of kirsch, candied violets, licorice, and crushed rocks, over a core of crème de cassis, baked plums, and redcurrant jelly. The medium-bodied palate is opulent, laden with layer upon layer of black berries and cherry-inspired flavors, supported by a satiny texture, finishing with seamless freshness and a long, lingering firework display of mineral and exotic spice sparks. A jaw-dropping natural beauty! Tasted at the chateau.Lisa Perrotti-Brown21st November 2024

The 1982 Château Margaux is adorned with a captivating, very floral crushed violet bouquet that blossoms in the glass. Perhaps it has a little more sophistication than the '82 Mouton. This bottle leans a little more towards red than black fruit. Stunning delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with lace-like tannins, very poised and focused, fresh and saline. Silky towards the finish, which fans out in consummate fashion, this is a beautiful Margaux that is utterly seductive. Tasted single blind at the 1982 dinner at Cornus in London.

A Legacy of Fine Wine

Château Margaux is one of the most striking constructions in the Bordeaux appellation, a large grand house built in the early 18th century on an estate that has been producing fine wine for hundreds of years, with a history dating back to the 12th century Bordeaux wine tradition. Quality was known to fluctuate in the first half of the 20th century, but that period of inconsistency ended with the arrival of wunderkind Paul Pontallier, a talented winemaker who worked nearly 35 vintages and produced some of the greatest wines in living memory. Paul passed on in 2016, and the team is now led by Philippe Bascaules and Sebastien Vergne, with consultancy from Eric Boissenot.

82 hectares are dedicated to red wine vines, with around 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Château Margaux produces around 30,000 cases of wine annually, with the Grand Vin accounting for around 35% of that total. Among their celebrated wines is Pavillon Rouge, the second wine of the estate, which stands as a testament to the estate's commitment to quality.

In addition to their renowned red wines, Château Margaux also produces a limited quantity of Sauvignon Blanc, adding another layer to their esteemed collection of Margaux wines. This white wine complements their offerings and demonstrates the estate’s versatility.
