CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 1934

Finally a very good vintage! The only one from the 1930s… The summer was hot and dry, followed by excellent weather conditions throughout the harvest. The result is an abundant harvest, with an excellent level of maturity.
Château Margaux 1934 is still superb and presents a dense and deep color. This Premier Cru Classé offers a fine, complex, fresh bouquet and a powerful, rich mouth, with very present tannins, but a little dry on the finish. (Tasted in 2010 by Château Margaux) The bottles now remain uneven, but most magnums are very good. Clearly, this is a drinkable wine that can only begin to lose the very good qualities it has left.

My favourite '34.At Wagner's first Margaux tasting in 1977 : rich, biscuity bouquet -though faisandé. Sweet on the palate, assertive fruit, very tannic. Most recently, a richly flavoured bottle. Bouquet very attractive but just misses greatness. A high mark at Manfred Wagner's second Ch Margaux tasting.

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 draws on a terroir of fine, deep gravels that promotes the expression of a wine of rare elegance and great aromatic complexity.

Le Grand Vin de Château Margaux has been recognized since the 17th century as one of the most accomplished expressions of the Bordeaux vineyard. Its qualities stem from the combination of an exceptional terroir, demanding viticulture, and a winemaking approach oriented toward precision and balance. Silky tannins, aromatic depth, freshness, and length on the palate are the defining hallmarks of the Margaux style.

The great vintages mark its history, from the 1953 wine, then the 1982 vintage to the 1990 and the 2000 vintage, up to the 2015, considered one of the estate's recent peaks. Le Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, the second wine, offers a more immediate interpretation. These illustrate the estate's ability to produce wines of great complexity, capable of evolving harmoniously over several decades while retaining a remarkable expression of their terroir.
