Bordeaux Blend: 100% Sauvignon Blanc.
This is the dry white wine of Château Margaux, made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc in 11 hectares of vines.
Really pure and precise, with a fascinating mineral drive to the fruit. Bright but textured on the palate, with a medium to full body. There is a subtle saline twist but it’s refreshing and driven, with excellent weight and length. The acidity really brightens it. 100% sauvignon blanc.
98-99 James Suckling.
Anis, fennel, white tea, citrus, lemon zest, kiwi, slate, a balanced and generous nose, and a ton of juicy mouthwatering waves that hit pretty much immediately, and keep on coming. 20% new oak. Perhaps ready to drink a little earlier than the 2021 - this is generous and deliciously sappy and appealing. Philippe Bascaules estate director.
97 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux.
Airy, crisp and bright, the 2024 dazzles with its mineral-drenched tension and cut. Orchard fruit, citrus peel, white pepper, mint and slate lend notable brightness. The 2024 is distinguished by a compelling interplay of vibrancy and a feeling of textural richness that is so complementary. 2026-2039.
94-96 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.
