Nation's Best Price: 2x 100-Pt Margaux Magnum

2016 Chateau Margaux MAGNUM

From one of Bordeaux’s best vintages ever, Château Margaux’s dual-100-point 2016 masterpiece is one of the greatest wines you could cellar—especially in rare magnum format. Perfect for aging, these come winery-direct in pristine condition, and our price smokes the competition. There is nothing better than a First Growth Bordeaux in magnum: Because of their higher wine-to-oxygen ratio, they age slower, steadier, and with more profound integration than a standard bottle.

Tasting notes

Aroma

Radiates from the glass with a profound bouquet of dark crushed raspberries, fresh spring violets, and pure cassis, seamlessly layered with subtle hints of graphite, black tea, and cedar.

Palate

Regal and seamless. The palate is defined by super-ripe, fine-grained tannins that feel like liquid silk.

From one of Bordeaux’s best vintages ever, Château Margaux’s dual-100-point 2016 masterpiece is one of the greatest wines you could cellar—especially in rare magnum format. Perfect for aging, these come winery-direct in pristine condition, and our price smokes the competition. 

There is nothing better than a First Growth Bordeaux in magnum: Because of their higher wine-to-oxygen ratio, they age slower, steadier, and with more profound integration than a standard bottle. A blue-chip mag from an estate like Chateau Margaux—not to mention a vintage that Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate rated one of the best of the 21st century—this will be an anchor of your cellar for decades.

Because they are made in smaller quantities and require more up-front capital, magnums generally cost more than twice as much as standard bottles. To put our sub-$1500 price in perspective, most prices are hovering around $2,000 (Total Wine’s included), and Millesima is demanding $2,300. Get it here, save $800+, pay no tariff add-ons, no shipping fees—and get your wine in perfect condition.

This bottle “moves Chateau Margaux into a new dimension,” wrote Wine Enthusiast, whose rave complements 100-point scores from James Suckling and The Wine Independent. This is one of the finest bottles made in an all-time-great vintage, a flawless, blue-chip centerpiece for your cellar that will age effortlessly for the next half-century, this is an awesome acquisition at an unbeatable price.
