Chateau Margui Coteaux Varois en Provence Rouge 2020
Chateau Margui Coteaux Varois en Provence Rouge 2020
Domaine de Margüi can trace its roots back to Roman times through ruins and amphorae discovered in 2002. In 2017, the Domaine was fully renovated and became part of the Skywalker Vineyards collection. Château Margui, the Domaine's emblematic Cuvée, boasts a nose of black fruits such as cherry, maraschino and fresh blackcurrant, enhanced by garrigue and a toasty finish in the background. On the palette the wine has a balanced acidity offering a sensation of freshness, integrated into the silky, almost satiny texture through 2/3 of the juices being aged in new French oak barrels for 18 months.

Vivino Rating: 4.2 (Apr 2024)
Taste
A deep ruby colour with a nose of black fruits such as cherry, maraschino and fresh blackcurrant, enhanced by garrigue and a toasty finish in the background. On the palate the wine has a balanced acidity offering a sensation of freshness, integrated into the silky, almost satiny texture. The tannins are fine and present in a powdery, chocolatey spirit. The generosity is balanced by the presence of black fruits and spices, such as liquorice and intertwined with a vegetal bouquet of Provencal herbs.
Blend: Syrah | Cabernet-Sauvignon | Grenache
Ageing: 2/3 of the juices in new French oak barrels for 18 months, and the last 1/3 in stainless steel tanks for 18 months also.
About the Producer
Tracing its roots back to Roman times, through ruins and amphorae discovered in 2002, Chateau Margui has had a long and distinguished history. In the 17th century, the estate was owned by a family from Aix-en-Provence and in 1784, they built the main house in the distinctive style of the bastides aixoises of that day: a lime-coated facade, nearly 6,500 square feet spanning three floors, all connected by a magnificent staircase, with many windows opening onto the French formal garden.
In 2017, the Domaine de Margüi was made part of the Skywalker Vineyards collection: The breathtaking natural surroundings and enchanted ambiance are quite akin to those found at Skywalker Vineyards in Marin County, California, and Viandante del Cielo in Passignano sul Trasimeno, Italy.
Today, Château Margüi boasts 37 acres of vineyards, 12 acres of olive groves, and 160 acres of forest, home to century-old conifers and a wide variety of deciduous trees.
The property was fully renovated, in keeping with Georges Lucas’s vision of a pure, preserved Provence, to become an estate exemplifying excellence in every way, including in its exceptional wines.
