Chateau Margaux 2013

Château Margaux, an iconic first-growth estate in Bordeaux’s Margaux appellation, has been producing world-class wines since the 17th century. Under the stewardship of the Mentzelopoulos family, the estate continues to set benchmarks for elegance and refinement. The 2013 vintage showcases the estate's resilience and dedication to quality, even in a year of challenging weather.

Wine Description

The 2013 Château Margaux is a delicate expression, displaying a bright garnet hue and a bouquet of fresh red currants, wild strawberries, and a touch of rose petals. Hints of cedar, graphite, and a whisper of vanilla enhance the aromatic complexity. The palate is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a graceful balance, leading to a clean, refined finish.

Food Pairing

Pair this wine with dishes like roasted quail, herb-crusted salmon, or a mushroom and truffle tart. Together, they create an unforgettable dining experience that emphasizes the wine’s finesse and subtlety.

Vintage Quality

The 2013 vintage presented significant challenges due to cooler temperatures and rain during harvest, resulting in a lighter, early-drinking style. While not as powerful as other years, it remains a testament to Château Margaux’s commitment to crafting wines of elegance and poise.
