The balance of a silky and elegant Grand Cru from Margaux
The estate
Since 1616, the Château Marquis d’Alesme has been overseeing an exceptional terroir in Margaux, in the heart of the Bordeaux region. Combining exoticism and classicism, Château Marquis d’Alesme is a land of culture and passion.
The vineyard
Château Marquis d’Alesme manages a 15-hectare vineyard in a parcelled manner. This Margaux vineyard, like a garden, is conducted with the utmost care thanks to the artisanal work of the Château Marquis d'Alesme team. The vines are planted on clay-limestone soils, siliceous and clayey gravels.
The vintage
Conducive to a great vintage, the weather conditions of this 2019 year were contrasted. A serene start to the cycle and very favorable summer conditions were followed by light rains in September which perfect the maturity of the berries.
Vinification and aging
Aging in barrels, 50% of which are new.
Blend
Cabernet sauvignon (57%), merlot (37%), petit verdot (6%).
