Critic reviews
"The 2025 Marquis d'Alesme Becker was tasted twice, at the château and at a négociant. Picked September 10 to 24 at 32 hl/ha, it is raised in 45% new French oak. It has a fragrant nose, quintessentially Margaux, with delineated scents of black cherries, violet, incense and light crushed stone. Very seductive, very precise. The palate is medium-bodied, with rounded tannins, a keen line of acidity and just a very slight herbaceous element behind that black, plummy fruit that should be subsumed during élevage. A decent Margaux, though this year I prefer its sister Margaux, the 2025 Labégorce."

"The 2025 Marquis d'Alesme is an attractive, mid-weight Margaux. Rose petal, lavender, blood orange and cinnamon open nicely in the glass. This needs a bit more polish in its tannins, but hopefully élevage will take care of that."
