Description
Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux Margaux 2017
Varietal: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot
This second wine of Château Margaux was introduced in 1908 and now represents 50% of the overall estate production. Generally selected from vats and barrels of a lesser caliber than the “Grand Vin,” it is typically made from the younger vines.
This is a superb second wine with fine, light structure, dark ruby color and rich fruit. Pavillon Rouge does not require a long time in barrel and matures more quickly, but still carries a fine potential for aging in the great vintages.
