Maison Ginestet Grand Vin de Margaux 2023 Wine Review

Natalie's Score: 91/100

Maison Ginestet Bordeaux offers concentrated aromas of cassis, cedar and hints of graphite. It's dry and medium-to-full bodied with a polished texture. Serve it at room temperature with herb-crusted roast beef where the wine's structure complements the savory crust while its ripe fruit balances the meat's richness, or cellar it through 2033. This historic négociant house was founded in 1897 by Fernand Ginestet on Bordeaux's iconic Quai de Bacalan and became a cornerstone of the Bordeaux wine trade—Fernand pioneered what is now known as the Interprofession Bordelaise by creating the Estate and Trade Union, which evolved into the prestigious Bordeaux Wine Council in 1948. This classic blend also pairs wonderfully with slow-roasted leg of lamb rubbed with rosemary and garlic, where the wine's depth echoes the herbs while its supple tannins cut through the meat's tender richness.

Food pairings: leg of lamb, roast beef, roast goose.
