2016 Château Confidence Margaux

50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot. There aren’t many wines left from the majestic 2016 vintage, so grab it while you can! A silky and delicious red with dark-berry and orange-peel aromas that follow through to a medium body, firm and silky tannins and a delicious finish.  Lots of umami notes make this an excellent food wine. Pairing beautifully with rich, savory fare, this Margaux second wine notably complements beef ribeye with béarnaise, venison, or aged farmhouse cheeses—its fine structure and freshness enhancing the flavors without overpowering.Owner.winemaker Dominique Befve was the Technical Director at Lafite Rothschild and Duhart-Milon. The estate vineyard is right next to Château Palmer and Rauzan Segla, some of the most esteemed sites in Margaux.
