As always, as the French saying goes, "August makes the must" or in this case, it was the undoing of it. Despite the very fine weather in September, the grapes were never able to acquire sufficient concentration after suffering during the month of August.
Château Margaux 1958 is a fine, light wine that has always lacked body, yet still possessed a certain charm. Today a little faded, it should have been enjoyed by now. (February 2025)
Climate
A late-ripening year, with a very rainy August and a fine, hot September. The harvest was carried out in beautiful weather. (The picking began 6th October)
