Château Margaux Margaux Pavillon Rouge 2019

Classically balanced Pavillon Rouge, fairly restrained in its fruits, good tannic structure, very much on the plum and bilberry fruits. There is a lovely balance here, with freshness, less exuberant than the 2018 yet with a quiet sense of building and delivering momentum. As it opens, rose petal and peony aromatics begin to hover above the glass, enticing you in. There is a lot going on here, and it’s a successful wine with juicy perfumed fruit. 27% of total production, 47hl/ha yield.
