PAVILLON ROUGE du Château Margaux 1998

Wine 1998 Second wine Bordeaux Margaux

Pavillon Rouge is the second wine of Château Margaux. It comes from the same vineyards and benefits from the estate's expertise. Pavillon Rouge is made from lots that are not selected for the grand vin, generally from vines that are still too young. It offers a more accessible expression of Château Margaux's style. More supple and fruity in its youth, it allows one to discover the finesse and elegance of this prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé.

Tasting Notes: Pavillon Rouge 1998 has an amazing concentration and all the qualities of the vintage; intense fruit, great length on the palate and of course very good aging potential. You can start drinking the wine, but there's no rush.

Grape Variety/Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon (~75%), Merlot (~20%), Cabernet Franc & Petit Verdot (~5%) (variations are possible from one vintage to another)

Aging: 18 to 24 months in new oak barrels

Food and Wine Pairing: Grilled red or white meat, Milk-fed lamb, Porcini mushrooms, Hard cheeses

Quite regal palate, very unified, juicy, fruity, pure, well structured. Perhaps the success of the 98 merlot gives it a succulent mid-palate. Beautiful length. Quite exciting.

Château Margaux

Château Margaux is one of the most prestigious estates in the Margaux appellation and a major historical figure of Bordeaux excellence. Classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé in the official 1855 classification, the château draws on a terroir of fine, deep gravels that promotes the expression of a wine of rare elegance and great aromatic complexity.

Le Grand Vin de Château Margaux has been recognized since the 17th century as one of the most accomplished expressions of the Bordeaux vineyard. Its qualities stem from the combination of an exceptional terroir, demanding viticulture, and a winemaking approach oriented toward precision and balance. Silky tannins, aromatic depth, freshness, and length on the palate are the defining hallmarks of the Margaux style.

The great vintages mark its history, from the 1953 wine, then the 1982 vintage to the 1990 and the 2000 vintage, up to the 2015, considered one of the estate's recent peaks. Le Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, the second wine, offers a more immediate interpretation. These illustrate the estate's ability to produce wines of great complexity, capable of evolving harmoniously over several decades while retaining a remarkable expression of their terroir.
