1998 PAVILLON ROUGE du Château Margaux 1998

Bordeaux - Second wine Bordeaux Margaux

The highlight of this 1998 vintage is the exceptional heat and the drought of August which allowed the early acquisition of an excellent level of concentration. Fortunately, the heavy rains in September, which came too late, could not impact the quality of the berries.
Pavillon Rouge 1998 from Château Margaux has all the qualities of its vintage. This second wine is intensely fruity, with a long finish. It has a very good aging capacity, but it can also be drunk now.

The mouth somewhat royal, very unified, fruity, pure, well structured. Perhaps the success of 1998 of the Merlot gives it its succulent mouth. Nice length. Exciting.

Château Margaux

Château Margaux is one of the largest wine estates in Bordeaux. In AOC, Margaux appears in the first classified growths of the official classification of Médoc wines of 1855.

If it is a privilege to bear the name of its Margaux appellation, there is no doubt that Château Margaux does it great honor.

For several centuries, this Premier Cru Classé has expressed to the highest degree the exceptional qualities of terroirs patiently brought together by several generations of owners. Maintained and harvested exclusively by hand with extreme care, the 78 hectares of vines (75% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 5% Cabernet-Franc and Petit-Verdot) draw their richness very deeply from the soil. clayey-gravelly, particularly dense and thick.

Fermentation in oak vats, after which the wine is strictly selected, is followed by 18 to 24 months of aging in new oak barrels. A masterpiece among the Bordeaux wines, the best according to some, Château Margaux reveals finesse and opulence, depth and complexity on tasting, and develops a bouquet of rare elegance of rose, violet, black fruits, under -taut by tight tannins that require patient aging before blossoming. The château also produces a second wine, Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, and a dry white wine, Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux (100% Sauvignon Blanc).

Best vintages of Château Margaux are : 1900, 1928, 1953, 1982, 1983, 1986, 1989, 1990
