Margaux is one of the most prestigious appellations in the Haut-Médoc, Bordeaux, and is internationally recognized for producing elegant, refined red wines with excellent aging potential. Covering approximately 1,400 hectares and producing over 10 million bottles annually, Margaux is the largest Médoc commune – and one of the finest.
The soils are rich in gravel, sand, and clay, benefiting especially Merlot, though Cabernet Sauvignon remains the dominant grape, supported by Cabernet Franc and the occasional Petit Verdot. This combination yields red wines with outstanding aromatic clarity, freshness, and finesse.
Red wines from Margaux are known for their floral, delicate style with fine tannins and bright fruit – a profile that appeals to Bordeaux lovers around the world. Standout producers include Château Du Tertre, known for expressive, approachable wines; Château Kirwan, praised for its depth and elegance; and Château Brane-Cantenac, a Second Growth in the 1855 classification, admired for its complex, long-lived expressions.
Margaux represents the refined soul of Bordeaux – wines that impress not with power, but with balance, nuance, and grace. Explore our curated selection of Margaux wines – from iconic estates to hidden gems from one of France’s most celebrated terroirs.
