The 1989 Château Margaux is a timeless expression of one of Bordeaux’s most iconic estates, delivering depth, elegance, and a profound sense of place. This vintage opens with a bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, dried violets, cedar, and earthy tobacco, all seamlessly integrated with notes of leather and graphite that have developed gracefully with age. On the palate, it’s structured yet silky, with refined tannins and a persistent finish that speaks to its exceptional pedigree and longevity. Château Margaux’s history dates back to the 12th century, though it wasn’t until the 17th century that it emerged as a true viticultural landmark. Officially classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé in 1855, Margaux has remained synonymous with elegance and finesse in the Médoc. Under the stewardship of the Mentzelopoulos family since 1977, the estate has flourished, combining modern innovation with centuries of tradition. The 1989 vintage, crafted under the direction of Paul Pontallier, is a quintessential representation of Margaux’s ability to deliver power and grace in perfect harmony.
