CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 1957

Wine 1957 1er Cru Classé  Bordeaux Margaux

The beginning of the year was difficult, marked by a few spring frosts. Fortunately, the record heat of October saved the late harvest.
Château Margaux 1957 has a fine and clean bouquet, typical of a fine vintage of this age. Its mouth is tender at first then a little lean and ends with slightly dry tannins. The final dryness of this Premier Cru Classé is quite representative of a generation of slightly more acidic wines with livelier tannins than today. It is a great wine that should be drunk; the magnums have good aging potential.

Château Margaux

Château Margaux is one of the most prestigious estates in the Margaux appellation and a major historical figure of Bordeaux excellence. Classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé in the official 1855 classification, the château is built upon a terroir of fine, deep gravels that favor the expression of a wine of rare elegance and great aromatic complexity.

The Grand Vin of Château Margaux has been recognized since the 17th century as one of the most accomplished expressions of the Bordeaux vineyard. It owes its qualities to the combination of an exceptional terroir, demanding viticulture and vinification work oriented toward precision and balance. The tannic finesse, aromatic depth, freshness and length on the palate constitute the constant hallmarks of the Margaux style.

Emblematic vintages such as Château Margaux 1899, Château Margaux 1949, Château Margaux 1953, Château Margaux 1982, Château Margaux 1990, Château Margaux 1990, Château Margaux 2000 or the iconic Château Margaux 2015 illustrate the estate's ability to produce wines of great complexity, capable of evolving harmoniously over several decades while maintaining a remarkable readability of their terroir.
