Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a deep ruby color with youthful purple highlights. The nose is typically expressive and layered, with notes of blackcurrant, ripe plum, violets, cedar, and subtle spice, often lifted by a touch of graphite and toasted oak. On the palate, the wine is usually medium to full-bodied, with fine-grained tannins, bright freshness, and a refined, silky texture that is so characteristic of Margaux. The finish should be long and graceful, with good balance and the promise of further development over time. While approachable in youth with proper aeration, this vintage should reward cellaring for several years.

Production
Situated in the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux’s Left Bank, Château Marquis d’Alesme benefits from gravelly soils that help promote drainage and encourage concentration in the grapes. The estate’s vineyards are typically harvested with careful parcel selection to preserve precision and ripeness, with vinification carried out to highlight purity of fruit, structure, and aromatic complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, duck breast, beef tenderloin, and mushroom-based dishes, as well as truffle-forward cuisine and aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromas and tannins to open fully.
