Proprietor Paul Pontallier is pulling back considerably from the higher alcohol, fuller styles that he was producing as recently as 2007. I am not sure it is the best idea, but this is still a vivid, vibrant 100% Sauvignon, with loads of minerality and almost unbridled notes of grapefruit and white currants in a medium-bodied, crisp, somewhat tart style. Drink it over the next 20+ years. 2012-2032.

ProducerChâteau Margaux

Château Margaux is one of the most historic estates in Bordeaux and is considered a national treasure. It has changed hands many times over the centuries, passing through a who's who of French nobility as well as the hands of powerful merchants such as the Ginestet family. The consistently outstanding quality of Margaux during the years of the Mentzelopoulos-Pontallier partnership is no coincidence though and demonstrates that the greatest terroirs need to be understood and worked on by people of rare talent, passion and commitment to achieve their full potential.
