About Château Margaux

Located in Médoc, Château Margaux is a rare estate that has enjoyed more than four centuries of excellence. First founded in the twelfth century,... Château Margaux went by the name “La Mothe de Margaux” (the Margaux mound), and in 1572, the Lestonnac family began planting vines on the land. By the end of the seventeenth century, Château Margaux had grown to more than 655 acres, and by the eighteenth century, the estate had already cemented its reputation for great Bordeaux. United States Ambassador to France (and third US president) Thomas Jefferson developed a deep love for Bordeaux and shipped many bottles to his Monticello wine cellar. Classified as a First Growth, or Premier Grand Cru Classé, in 1855, Château Margaux has retained its elite position through continual innovation, dedicated research, and inspired leadership. Since 2003, Château Margaux has been owned by 2003, Corinne Mentzelopoulos, whose family has defined the modern era of Château Margaux. The best of the best, Château Margaux is a timeless treasure.
