Pavillon Rouge 2011 OWC
Pavillon Rouge 2011
Pavillon Rouge 2011, the second red wine of the legendary Château Margaux, embodies the affordable elegance of the Médoc, where savoir-faire and tradition intertwine. This red wine, composed of Cabernet Sauvignon (65%), Merlot (30%) and Petit Verdot, draws its depth from a gravelly, clay-limestone terroir favored by a temperate climate. Precise vinification, with 18 months' ageing in oak barrels, confers a harmonious structure. Despite a cooler climate, the 2011 vintage offers remarkable finesse and balance. On tasting, this wine reveals aromas of red fruits, violets and pepper, with subtle notes of graphite. Its silky mouthfeel, with fine tannins, leads to an elegant finish. Ideal with roast poultry or mature cheese, this Pavillon Rouge 2011 will appeal to lovers of Bordeaux grands crus with its accessible charm and timeless refinement.
