Chateau Margaux PAVILLON ROUGE de CHATEAU MARGAUX Margaux
Description: Chateau Margaux may trace its origins back as far as the 12th Century when there was no sign of any viticulture. It was owned by French nobility, and was known as La Mothe de Margaux meaning a small rise in the land. It was not until the Lestonnac family took possession of the estate that it began to resemble the modern day Chateau Margaux. In the ten years that followed 1572, Pierre Lestonnac, in anticipation of a change from arable agriculture to viticulture on the Medoc, made dramatic changes to the estate. By the beginning of the 18th Century Chateau Margaux comprised 265 ha, of which one third was devoted to viticulture. Today the estate has changed very little in size or layout. The wines are fermented in oak vats, and the reds see up to two years maturation in oak, in general, though, Pavillon Rouge is bottled three to four months earlier than Chateau Margaux. The second wine Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux has a production of about 16500 cases per year. The degree of selection is constantly going up for the first wine, which diverts a lot of very good wine in the direction of Pavillon Rouge. The selection of a third wine, begun in 1997, was continued in 1998. It has now become a systematic reflex. This operation, which demonstrates Chateau Margaux's growing concern for rigour, as much for the second wine as for the first.. This selection policy enabled the Pavillon Rouge 1998 to be of astonishing concentration and undoubtedly one of the most powerful to date. The Pavillon Rouge 1998 possesses all the qualities of its vintage, intense fruit, a great length on the palate and of course great potential for improving with age.. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £674.24

Chateau Cissac Cru Bourgeois Haut Medoc
Description: The first traces of the building that is now Chateau Cissac and the village of Cissac go back as far as the Romans. In fact, the village of Cissac was a relatively important Roman settlement. Tombs have been found in the village and in the grounds dating from the period of Merovee, the father of Charlemagne. However, the house as we know it today dates from 1769 and Chateau Cissac extends over 50 hectares. It is from these vines that the Grand vin Chateau Cissac and its second wine, Reflets du Chateau Cissac are produced. The vines are about 30 years old with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot grape varieties grown on fine gravel over chalk. Each vine variety does not produce similar quantities each year. However, the proportions on the various single-variety wines that are assembled to make Château Cissac are strictly respected. There are ten huge wooden vats at Château Cissac, constructed in the great Medocain tradition. They and the building which houses them are over 100 years old and were restored in 1997, while these ancient vats have been adapted to meet the requirements of modern oenology by the installation of a system of automatic heat regulation. A deep red coloured wine with complex aromas of dark forrest fruits including black cherry, plum and oak. Rich and generous with great finesse of tannins it has balanced acidity, integrated oak and a long finish. Available in Original Wooden Case. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £236.65
