Hi Anna! Thanks for stopping by and glad you enjoyed the video :-) For the Margaux appellation itself, I don't think the water supply from the Garonne/Gironde river is that important as most vineyards in the Margaux AOP are higher up on gravelly hills so roots don't go this far down to get their water. Water supply comes from the rainfalls which are stocked up in the underground and the soil through the natural clay in their composition. There are layers of dense clay in the underground of Margaux too. THen again, as highlighted in the video, the Island of Margaux is not in the Margaux appellation delimited area, so the wines do not come labeled as Margaux AOC. The terroir there if very distinct from the one in Margaux AOC, although it's close but as you saw it's right in the middle of the river! Cheers Anna. Hope this helps :-)

Thanks for the great reply. That has really helped me to understand the area.

What is the name of this winery Julien?
