Château Labégorce Margaux is a classic wine from the prestigious Margaux appellation in the Médoc, Bordeaux. The wine is a blend of mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, supplemented with Merlot, Petit Verdot, and sometimes a touch of Cabernet Franc. This combination results in a wine with a deep ruby red color and a complex bouquet of black fruit such as cassis and blackberries, together with floral notes of violets and a hint of vanilla due to the maturation on oak. The taste is elegant and refined, with firm, but well-integrated tannins and a long, velvety finish that is characteristic of the wines of Margaux.
Wine serving temperature: 16 - 18 °C.
Château Labégorce is a versatile wine that goes well with grilled red meat, such as entrecote or lamb chops. It also goes well with game dishes such as venison or pheasant, and with rich stews such as boeuf bourguignon. The elegant structure and fruity aromas also make it an excellent choice with mature cheeses such as an old Gouda or a Comté. Due to its complexity and depth, this Margaux can also be enjoyed on its own on special occasions.
Château Labégorce is a historic winery in the Margaux appellation and has a long history dating back to the 14th century.
