Chteau Margaux

About this book

In the only book dedicated to this prestigious Bordeaux wine Faith leads the reader on a tour through the sumptuous neo-classical Chteau Margaux estate. Beginning with a description of the dramatic history that defines the estate and the fortuitous geology and geography that define the wine Jean Dethier describes the magical atmosphere of the chteau; three celebrated wine and food experts-George Lepr Markus Del Monego and Shinya Tasaki-offer critical insight on the best combinations of fine food with Chteau Margauxs wines. The final section offers a useful chronology and assessment of the vintages from 1771 to the present.
