L'Epiphanie de Margaux 2021
Margaux AOC
As Hugh Johnson says, “There is a delicacy about archetypal Margaux, and a sweet, haunting perfume, that can make it the most exquisite claret of all.” The normal bottle price from this château is £100s, but not with this terrific hush-hush deal.

We simply cannot tell you the name of the top Margaux estate that's behind this red. The confidentiality clause is so strict that the wine was even bottled away from the château. (It’s why you won’t see Grand Cru on the label.) What we can promise you is that this is an exceptional wine from one of the most-prized estates in this prestigious appellation. While this is definitely not their Grand Vin (you'd have to pay £600 for that), it is made from the same grapes, by the same team, with the same lavish no-expense-spared expertise. All classic ripe black fruit character, alongside cherry and plum, infused with subtle spice, cedar and tobacco. Open early and decant, but for the best results cellar for a few years. It will pay dividends.
For the 2020 vintage
