About the Chateau Margaux Pavillon Rouge 2017

Tasting Notes

Colour: Deep, bright red
Aroma: Nice concentration of fruit on the nose. Delicious notes of black currant, blueberry, cassis, and graphite with mint on the edges.
Palate: The Merlot largely contributes to Pavillon Rouge’s soft, fruity aromatic expression. Certainly softer and more approachable, there is a suppleness in tannins that makes this a very seductive wine. The Cabernet Sauvignon gives it an exceptionally long finish.
Grape Varieties: 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.
Awards: 90pts – Wine Spectator

History of Margaux

Château Margaux was known since the XII century, it was called “La Mothe de Margaux” (the Margaux mound) and, at that time, it didn’t have any vines. The old name didn’t happen by chance; in a flat region like the Médoc, the slightest “mound” was easily distinguished and the greatest wines are always produced on sloping land that ensures good drainage.

The successive owners of “La Mothe de Margaux” were, of course, important lords but we had to wait for the arrival of the Lestonnac family to set up the estate as we know it today. Pierre de Lestonnac succeeded, in the ten years from 1572 to 1582, in completely restructuring the property as well as the vineyard and anticipated the general evolution of the Médoc that had started to abandon cereal growing in favour of vines. At the end of the 17th century, Château Margaux occupied 265 hectares, land that wouldn’t be divided again. A third of the estate was dedicated to vines, which is still the case today.

At the beginning of the 21st century, Bordeaux wines are experiencing unprecedented success. This prosperity, as well as the rapid expansion of other regions in the world, has placed Château Margaux in a more competitive climate, and also allowed the underlining of its unique position: that of a First Growth classified in 1855, enjoying a terroir that has been shaped by the passing centuries.
