Parker about Château Margaux 2024
The 2024 Château Margaux has turned out beautifully, unfurling in the glass with notes of cassis, violets, cigar box and iris. Medium to full-bodied, deep and vibrant, with excellent density and concentration for the vintage, it's lively and layered, concluding with a long, penetrating finish. This is a serious, youthfully tightly wound blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc that attained 12.8% alcohol.
Suckling over Château Margaux 2024
Really impressive depth, concentration and perfume this year, with fine tannins. Lots of violets, red flowers, black cherries and currants. Full-bodied and seriously structured, with impeccable freshness and a very long finish. Dense and powerful for the vintage, with tension, vibrations, good concentration and a tannin framework. 93% cabernet sauvignon, 5% merlot, 1% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot.

Château Margaux 2024
Château Margaux 2024 is a quintessential expression of the refined, aristocratic style of this legendary Premier Grand Cru Classé. The vintage strikes a faultless balance between refinement and substance: the nose unveils a filigree, multi-layered bouquet of ripe red and dark berries, violets, cedarwood, and the finest floral notes – underpinned by a whisper of graphite and cool minerality. On the palate, the wine feels silky, almost weightless, yet supported by a firm, precisely sculpted tannic architecture. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, the blend is brilliantly vinified: cool, precise, and possessing great aromatic depth. On the finish, Château Margaux 2024 is long, nuanced, and imbued with an inner serenity and tension radiated only by the greatest wines of the Left Bank. A vintage that relies less on sheer power than on noble restraint and delicate complexity – standing squarely in the finest tradition of the estate. A grand Margaux with superb ageing potential.
