Steeped in history, Château Margaux can date itself back to the sixteenth century. Currently a First Growth property, Margaux is one of the finest wines in the Médoc. Owned by the Mentzepoulos family since 1977, Margaux has consistently created exceptional wines under the same family for the past five decades. Their wines are renowned for their perfumed elegance, which unusually is offset by a full-body that is brimming with layers of complexity, complete with seemingly infinite length. Their 80 hectares of vineyards are cultivated on multiple plots, with their best terroir on a 25-hectare parcel of deep gravel soils. They are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon (c.75%), Merlot (c.20%), Petit Verdot (c.3%) and Cabernet Franc (c.2%). Most of the work in the vineyards is managed using organic farming methods, with a majority of the grape sorting still being done by hand. One of the most celebrated wines in the region, Margaux have frequently received the “wine of the vintage” award.

Neal Martin

The 2019 Pavillon Blanc de Margaux has an open and quite intense bouquet, scents of fresh pear, orange pith and citrus peel, and just a touch of smoke. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, lively with Clementine and mandarin notes. Cohesive with well-integrated oak this gradually builds towards a very convincing finish. Excellent. Best Pavillon Blanc in recent years? You bet. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

Reflecting the trend toward a more vibrant, earlier-picked style for this cuvee, the 2019 Pavillon Blanc exhibits notes of pear, grapefruit and crisp white peach, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and chiseled palate, concluding with a saline finish. Its low pH of 3.05 reflects a rigorous selection of only the first (and lowest pH) juice at the press.
