2005 Château Ferrière, Margaux, Bordeaux

The smallest property of all the Cru Classs, this little-known estate has become one of the best kept secrets in the Mdoc. This is partly down to the fact that it was, until very recently, distributed exclusively in France. Much has changed under new owner, Claire Villars. Not least the quality!  With its high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon this is reminiscent of a mini-Ch. Margaux in style. It has excellent concentration and is quite masculine for a Margaux yet polished. With only 4000 cases made in total this attractive wine is very rare and should offer exceptional value.
