Château Macquin is located not quite two miles north of Saint-Émilion, in the small village of Saint-Georges, the smallest of all Bordeaux appellations. However, at its peak of 280 feet above sea level, Saint-Georges enjoys one of the best elevations on the right bank, giving the wines freshness and concentration. Wine has been made here wince 1865, when the first cellar was created by Francois-Albert Macquin (who was also the first to replant vines in Saint-Emilion following the phylloxera epidemic). Today the estate is run by his grandson Denis and wife Christine Corre Macquin, who own 68 acres of vines in both Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. An 80/20 blend of Merlot and Cabernet, the wine has an alluring nose of ripe red fruits and spices and a full-bodied palate with perfectly concentrated flavors of cassis, raspberry and tobacco and a balanced lifted acidity.
