Grand Vin

2003 Margaux Red Blend

Chateau Margaux Grand Vin 2003 is a stunning red blend that epitomizes the elegance and complexity of the Margaux region. With a deep, vibrant red hue, this wine entices the senses from the first glance. It showcases a medium to full body, perfectly balanced by bright acidity that brings life to its rich flavor profile. The fruit intensity is pronounced, revealing layers of dark cherry, blackcurrant, and subtle hints of blackberry intertwined with delicate earthy undertones. Tannins are firmly structured yet refined, adding a pleasant grip to the palate without overwhelming the fruit. As a dry wine, it concludes with a lingering finish that invites contemplation and appreciation, making it a true testament to the craftsmanship of its makers. This Grand Vin is not only a remarkable representation of its vintage but also a splendid expression of the terroir that defines Margaux.

Probably the world's most famous wine region, Bordeaux is a true powerhouse of French quality. While Bordeaux is home to some of the country's most expensive bottles, it is also possible to find great-value wines from small producers. Almost all red and white wines from Bordeaux are blends. Reds tend to be a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. But just as important as the blends are the quality of the region's terroir and unique winemaking techniques. The Bordeaux region is divided by the Gironde River into two main parts. Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme on the Left Bank, while Merlot dominates the Right Bank. White wines are usually a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
