2004 Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux

Undoubtedly among Bordeaux's most celebrated second wines, and this from one of the Left Bank's truly 'classic' vintages. Crafted, too, with the same meticulous care and precision as the Grand Vin, but here from younger vines and with more rigorous selection. Here, a refined, earlier-drinking expression of the estate's signature elegance, perfume, and poise. In top vintages, Pavillon Rouge can rival classified growths, making it a superb choice for Margaux lovers seeking pedigree at a more accessible price.
