Aufhellendes Granat-Purpur. Pfeffriges Bouquet, rote Johannisbeeren, Rosentöne, erfrischend. Im Gaumen sehr fein, cremig, charmante Textur und reife Tannine zeigend, im Finale rote Pflaumenschalen, dezente Bitterkeit, was aber offensichtlich noch vom Presswein stammt, schöne Länge. beginnen (2013 - 2022)

Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux has a crisp and well defined bouquet of black dusky fruit, sandalwood, bay leaf and a touch of warm gravel. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and impressive structure. There is a linearity about this Pavillon Rouge, with a dash of white pepper towards the finish, as it clings to the mouth and says, I'm going to last longer than you think in bottle. This initially suggested a drinking window of around a decade, but now a decade on, it has other ideas. Tasted February 2017.

Sweet plum aromas, with hints of fresh herbs, follow through to a medium body, with fine tannins and a fruity finish. Light but enjoyable. Drink now. –JS
