PAVILLON ROUGE DU CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 2019

Tasting Notes

Fresh tobacco, currant and earth, opening up to forest flowers. It's rich in tannins, but very soft and beautiful. Layered, with lots of fine fruit and a velvety texture. Blackberry and chocolate in the finish too. 27% of the crop and a blend of 76% cabernet sauvignon and 19% merlot, the rest petit verdot and cabernet franc. Delicious already, but give it at least six years of bottle age. Better after 2027. (jamessuckling.com,Jan. 17, 2022)
