No other vintage can better express the magical association that is so difficult to obtain simultaneously finesse and power. A first growth without rival in its style!
J-M Quarin : 100/100 “When swirled, the aromatic intensity is incredible. Extremely refined on the palate, with the creamiest texture ever seen at Château Margaux, a supremely elegant structure, a record-breaking vibrancy of flavour and an incredibly smooth mouthfeel, the wine develops with great flavour. It adds a layer of ultra-delicate, mysterious fullness on the finish, such is the controlled power that defies comprehension. It is marvellous.”
La Revue du Vin de France : 98-100/100 “One of the standout wines of the vintage. A truly magnificent, classic wine, embodying the pure, ethereal spirit of Margaux. The immense delicacy of the fruit, which gently coats the palate, is complemented by subtle notes of roses. The purity of the Cabernets is admirable, with a silky texture and a resonance of fruit on the palate that lingers. Without a doubt, a benchmark Château Margaux.”
Vinous (A. Galloni) : 97-99/100 "The 2025 Château Margaux is shaping up to be one of the wines of this young vintage. Dark and layered, almost mysterious in bearing, the 2025 is going to have a lot to say over the coming decades as it grows up. Today, its superb persistence and exceptional balance are the harbingers. Here, too, there's a ton of tannin, but also more than enough fruit and overall density to keep things in balance."
Bettane+Desseauve : 97-98/100 “The château’s characteristic floral bouquet comes through here with great purity and refinement. Its admirable body, delicate tannins and the perfect ripeness of the grapes make this one of the standout wines of the vintage.”
Vinous (N. Martin) : 96-98/100 "The first thing that you notice on this Château Margaux is the purity of fruit, a signature of the First Growth but taken to its maximum in this vintage. Perfumed blueberry, crushed violet and iris flower, a touch of iodine and a distant trace of the estuary. Wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety tannins, fine delineation and poise. There is backbone to this Margaux but it is disguised under the layers of pure blackberry and blueberry fruit, dovetailing into a lightly spiced but very persistent finish. It fans out wonderfully, completing a very alluring wine in the making."
