1953 CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 1953
Infos produit
The very hot and dry month of August decided the privileged fate of this vintage. In September, weather conditions were normal with some rain during the harvest, which did not affect the quality of the grapes which were already ripe and concentrated.
1953 is one of the greatest vintages of Château Margaux.
Fine, subtle and rich, Château Margaux 1953 is extraordinarily delicate. The bouquet of this wine tends towards perfection. The nose of undergrowth blends aromas of flowers, red fruits and leather. In the mouth, we feel a measured, contained power, which has evolved over time, giving a supreme form of smoothness and tenderness.

Château Margaux
Château Margaux is one of the largest wine estates in Bordeaux. In AOC, Margaux appears in the first classified growths of the official classification of Médoc wines of 1855.
If it is a privilege to bear the name of its Margaux appellation, there is no doubt that Château Margaux does it great honor.
For several centuries, this Premier Cru Classé has expressed to the highest degree the exceptional qualities of terroirs patiently brought together by several generations of owners. Maintained and harvested exclusively by hand with extreme care, the 78 hectares of vines (75% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 5% Cabernet-Franc and Petit-Verdot) draw their richness very deeply from the soil. clayey-gravelly, particularly dense and thick.
Fermentation in oak vats, after which the wine is strictly selected, is followed by 18 to 24 months of aging in new oak barrels. A masterpiece among the Bordeaux wines, the best according to some, Château Margaux reveals finesse and opulence, depth and complexity on tasting, and develops a bouquet of rare elegance of rose, violet, black fruits, under -taut by tight tannins that require patient aging before blossoming. The château also produces a second wine, Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, and a dry white wine, Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux (100% Sauvignon Blanc).
Best vintages of Château Margaux are : 1900, 1928, 1953, 1982, 1983, 1986, 1989, 1990

(10-1994) Tasted 6 Times With Consistent Notes The 1953 Margaux has been delicious for most of its life. Bottles from the cold, damp Paris cellars of the French wine merchant, Nicolas, have exhibited an impressively dark rubypurple color with only slight lightening at the edge. Its huge nose possesses rich scents of violets, sweet cassis fruit, and spices. Round and opulent, with a velvety texture and gobs of sweet, jammy fruit, this is Chateau Margaux at its most seductive.

Information on the vintage 1953 red Bordeaux : 5/5 One of my all-time favourite vintages, combining fragrance, finesse and charm, epitomising claret at its best, the antithesis of some latter day blockbusters.
