Margaux Cru Bourgeois - Château Labegorce

The Margaux Cru Bourgeois from the hands of Château Labegorce in Bordeaux offers a dense, ruby-red color in the wine glass. When swirled, this red wine reveals high viscosity, which shows in the “church windows” on the glass. With a little time in the glass, this Old World red wine displays wonderfully expressive aromas of plum, blueberry, blackberry, and sour cherry, rounded off by further fruity nuances.

Château Labegorce Margaux Cru Bourgeois presents itself to the wine drinker pleasantly dry. This red wine never comes across as coarse or meager, as one might expect in the icon-wine segment. The finish of this red wine from the Bordeaux region, more precisely from Margaux, ultimately convinces with a beautiful aftertaste.

Vinification of the Margaux Cru Bourgeois from Château Labegorce

The foundation for the powerful Margaux Cru Bourgeois from Bordeaux is grapes from the Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot varieties. The Margaux Cru Bourgeois is clearly shaped by more than just the Margaux soil. This French wine can literally be described as an Old World wine that presents itself in an exceptionally impressive way. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery without delay. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After vinification, the wine is aged for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
