A nose that evokes fruity gourmandise, a suave attack with a well-presented wine on a precise, silky and well-balanced tannic structure. A generous finish that gives the impression of biting into the grape.... It's all there for your enjoyment. A well-born Margaux offering excellent value for money! - Delivery in wooden case for orders delivered in France of 6 bottles of this wine (excluding Point Relais delivery method).

Expert opinion
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Rated (2017 guide) 88/100 (Good wine)
Domaine noté Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the wine:
Tasted at the Cru Bourgeois annual tasting, the 2015 D'Arsac is bursting with tobacco-tinged black fruits on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, quite lively, nervous with a slight marine influence on the slightly metallic finish. Give it another year in bottle. Tasted in September 2017.
Wine Enthusiast
Rated 93/100
About the wine:
Owner Philippe Raoux has created a large sculpture park and a series of impressive vintages on this estate at the western end of Margaux. This vintage is already one of the best, rich and vibrant with excellent fruit and full-bodied tannins. It needs great ageing.
