Château Margaux 1998

Tasting notes

"The 1998 Margaux's color is a dense ruby/purple. The wine is tannic and austere, but elegant, with notes of asphalt, blackberries, acacia flowers, and sweet, toasty oak. Subtle, rich, nicely-textured, and medium-bodied, it is built for the long haul. (...)"

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

Although it is of considerable size, the vineyard is cultivated with meticulous application and pious repect of quality. The only wines which are given the honor of bearing the Château margaux label are those which have passed the test of stringent selection. This segregation which is extremely severe leads to the production of the second wine, distruted under the label "Pavillon rouge du Château Margaux".

A parcel of very fine gravel soil covering some 12 hectares has been planted for more than a century to the Sauvignon blanc grape, which in limited quantities, produces a dry wine, original and subtle, called the "Pavillon blanc du Château Margaux."

Production : 150'000 bottles ;

Surface : 78 ha ;

Plantation density : 10'000 vines/ha;

Age of the vines : 35 years;

Second wine : Pavillon rouge du Château Margaux;

Wine variety : 75% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 5% petit verdot;
