Corinne Mentzelopoulos, Paul Pontallier, Alexandra Mentzelopoulos, Château Margaux

Keen to bring the younger generation on at Chateau Margaux, Corinne Mentelopoulos introduced winemaker Paul Pontallier's son, Thibault and her daughter Alexandra. Paul Pontallier described Château Margaux as a 100-year wine and its second wine, Pavillon Rouge, as the best ever. Amazingly, Château Margaux, 90% cabernet sauvignon, 7% merlot and 1.5% each cabernet franc, is only 13.5% alcohol. It's gorgous, and so is Pavillon Rouge.
