Château le Coteau Margaux AOC

Château Le Coteau is one of the last family-run wineries in the prestigious Margaux appellation. Eric Léglise carries on his ancestors' legacy here with a steady hand and deep respect for the terroir. This Cabernet Sauvignon perfectly embodies what the Left Bank of Bordeaux is world-renowned for: density paired with cool finesse.

In the glass, a classic Margaux profile unfolds. Clear aromas of blackcurrant and ripe blackberry mingle with delicate notes of graphite and damp forest floor. On the palate, the red wine presents itself with a precise acidity and firm, yet finely polished tannins. The finish is long, dry, and carried by a subtle mineral spice that reflects its origin in the region's gravelly soils.

A characterful Bordeaux demands robust companions on the plate. Serve this wine with pink-roasted beef fillet, rosemary-roasted rack of lamb, or mature hard cheeses such as an aged Mimolette. For optimal aroma development, a serving temperature of 16 to 18 °C is recommended. If you open the wine while it is still young, decant it for one to two hours before serving.
