TASTING NOTES

"Very beautiful aromas of crushed flowers--like roses--follow through to plum, berry and Indian spices. Full-bodied, refined and silky, with lovely ripe fruit and a delicate aftertaste of raisin and flowers. The second wine of Margaux. Best after 2012." Wine Spectator

Rating: 92
Drink from: 2012

"Stylish and pure, the 2005 Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux is soft and round, with a deep ruby color, silky tannins, medium body and a lush, seductive mouthfeel. It is drinking well already and should continue to do so for another 8-10 years." Robert Parker's Wine Advocate #219

"Very dark. Lively, nervy nose with lots of fresh fruit and still a hint of oak but there is some real core of fruit here. Should come right in the end. Tannins on the finish are dry not drying." JancisRobinson.com
