PAVILLON ROUGE du Château Margaux 1985

Wine 1985 Second wine Bordeaux Margaux

Le Pavillon Rouge is the second wine of Château Margaux. It comes from the same vineyards and benefits from the estate's expertise. Le 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 you to discover the finesse and elegance of this prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé.

This vintage was marked by very favorable ripening and harvesting conditions in September and October despite a difficult start to the year. This "Indian summer" remains in everyone's memory.
Like the grand vin, Pavillon Rouge 1985 from Château Margaux is superb. This second wine is elegant, balanced, full-bodied, complex. It is a wine of great delicacy, no need to wait any longer to enjoy it.

Wine Spectator April - 1988

Rich and massive but elegant too. It's loaded with berry, cassis and mint flavours and a wallop of tannin and oak. But it's pretty and refined, and this is just Margaux's second label. Give this one some cellar time.

Château Margaux

Château Margaux is one of the most prestigious estates of 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 encourages the expression of a wine of rare elegance and great aromatic complexity.

The Grand Vin de Château Margaux has been recognised since the 17th century as one of the most accomplished expressions of the Bordeaux vineyard. It owes its qualities to the combination of an exceptional terroir, demanding viticulture and a winemaking approach oriented towards precision and balance. The finesse of the tannins, the aromatic depth, the freshness and the length on the palate are the constant hallmarks of the Margaux style.

The great vintages punctuate its history, from the 1953 wine, then the 1982 vintage to the 1990 and the 2000 vintage, through to the 2015, regarded as one of the estate's recent pinnacles. Le Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, the second wine, offers a more immediate interpretation. They illustrate the estate's ability to produce wines of great complexity, capable of evolving harmoniously over several decades, whilst retaining a remarkable clarity of their terroir.
