Blackberry, plum, light earth and undergrowth on the nose. Citrus, too. It’s full-bodied with rich, chewy tannins that turn energetic, fine and tight on the finish. Lively acidity. Second wine of Margaux. A blend of 69% cabernet sauvignon, 19% merlot, 9% petit verdot and 3% cabernet franc. Try after 2024.

The 2018 Pavillon Rouge is a powerful, brooding wine with huge fruit and equally imposing tannins. Time in the glass brings out elements of château Margaux finesse to balance things out. In 2018 the Pavillon has some lots that tend to go into the Grand Vin, but that were deemed too tannic for that wine.

The 2018 Pavillon Rouge is a blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 9% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, with 14.5% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with vivacious scents of chocolate-covered cherries, mulberries and blackcurrant pastilles with suggestions of bay leaves, pencil lead, tapenade and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a generous amount of black fruit at the core with loads of earthy and savory accents and a soft, approachable frame, finishing long with an herbal lift. It is approachable now but should be a lot more expressive with a couple of years in bottle and drink nicely over the following 15 to 18 years or more.

Château Margaux

Indiscutibilmente la proprietà più sbalorditiva tra gli Châteaux del Médoc, la grande facciata e il teatrale viale alberato la dicono lunga sulla straordinaria reputazione di Château Margaux. Costruito all'inizio del XIX secolo, lo Château continua a svettare e rappresenta secoli di viticoltura. Di origine greca, André Mentzelopoulos acquistò la tenuta nel 1949 e, sin dagli anni Ottanta, la figlia Corinne Mentzelopoulos ne ha seguito le tradizioni ben radicate. Nel 1983, il carismatico e purtroppo ormai defunto Paul Pontallier entrò a far parte della squadra, diventando direttore tecnico a soli 27 anni. Il tradizionale Château, guidato da questa squadra giovane ma di talento, è cresciuto diventando uno dei migliori di Bodeaux. La tenuta di 262 ettari produce il Grand Vin di punta a base di Cabernet Sauvignon, il Château Margaux, oltre a un secondo vino notevole, il Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, e a un Sauvignon Blanc in purezza, unico in Margaux, il Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux.
