Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Margaux 1er Cru 2025

100+
/100

Meget fyldig i næsen med fyldig, tæt, sødlig rød bærfrugt. Men ikke pompøs, bare intens, tæt og fuld af energi. Rige røde kirsebær og surkirsebær, også hindbær, brombær, meget let lakrids og fine praliner. Smagen ligner tydeligt dens anden vin, Pavillon Rouge, men den er meget finere og fuld af røde kirsebær. Meget elegant og legende sammenvævet! Tanninstrukturen er superfløjlsagtig, alt er poleret og poleret. Tæt, rig og lang ... Som alle Premier Cru'er fra venstre bred, især i Médoc, et meget godt resultat, men ikke slottets århundredes vin og ikke alene i toppen. Det skyldes helt sikkert, at der er nogle så storslåede vine blandt 2ème Cru'erne. Som altid er det bedre det godes fjende. I år har Margaux simpelthen lige så gode eller endda bedre modstandere fra det tidligere andet lag i Medoc. Ikke desto mindre en stor vin - uden tvivl!

Parker om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

A blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2025 Château Margaux is a deep, authoritative wine that represents some 37% of the estate's production this year. Unwinding in the glass with notes of dark berries, violets, lilac and pencil shavings, framed by a deft touch of new oak, it's medium- to full-bodied, dense and layered, with a concentrated core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins and lively acids. This will certainly require some patience, but it is a prodigious Château Margaux in the making. It checks in at 13.8% alcohol and a pH of 3.72.

Jane Anson om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

More dense and yet more soft than the Pavillon Rouge, fully anchored in place and yet rising through the palate, with rose petals, pomegranate, cassis and damson fruits, so juicy and full of character, slate and crushed rocks, peony and iris, with volume that is expansive and striking. These guys held on to harvest after the rains and have been rewarded for it - can't have been easy as everyone was picking around them, but this was a great decision that shows just what was capable in this vintage. 22hl/ha yield across the vineyard, harvest September 8 for young Merlot, then Cabernet Sauvignon began September 19 and finished September 29. 14% press wine, so a little less than usual because of the natural concentration. 22hl/ha yield across the vineyard, IPT81,3.76ph. 37% 1st wine. I dont give 100 points En Primeur, but if I did, this would get it. It's a slam dunk.

Jeff Leve om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

The vast array of floral aromas doesn't require a single swirl before you're ensconced in their bouquet. Black cherries, cocoa, exotic spices, currants, espresso, and blackberries follow aromatically. On the palate, length, width, and depth are present in spades. The concentration is intense, yet the wine feels almost weightless on your palate. The fruits, with an almost racy quality, paired with sweetness, energy, and length, hit all the right notes. Balanced between cerebral and opulent, this is a great vintage of Chateau Margaux. The hallmark of the vintage is the fruit's ability to provide ripeness with density. The wine blends 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot. 13.8% ABV. 3.72 pH, 14% press wine. Yields were only 22 hectoliters per hectare. Picking took place September 8 - September 29. Drink from 2032-2075.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

A heavenly, magical wine that has perfection written all over it, the 2025 Château Margaux is based on 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot, raised entirely in new barrels. Similar in its gorgeous aromatics to the Pavillon Rouge, it shows cassis, blue fruits, and spice, but with a touch more freshness and floral character. It's absolutely seamless on the palate, with full body, a deep, layered, pure, graceful mouthfeel, velvety, polished tannins, flawless balance, and sensational length. Hitting 13.8% alcohol with a pH of 3.72, they took a chance harvesting very late in September, finishing on the 29th, and it unquestionably paid off. While many of the wines of the vintage are beautiful in their richness and elegance, this hits another level of opulence and depth. It reminds me of the 2009 on the palate and is a legendary Margaux in the making.
