Product detailed description
Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux 2007 shows a more delicate and very elegant side of the Margaux appellation. The 2007 vintage in Bordeaux was not based on power and concentration, but on precise work in the vineyard and the preservation of freshness. Thanks to the strict selection of grapes, a wine with the typical nobility of Château Margaux was created, which stands out more for its harmony than for its power.
The aroma offers delicate tones of red fruit, blackcurrant, cedar and light spices, which are complemented by an elegant woody character. The taste is smooth and balanced, with softer tannins, pleasant acidity and a longer, clean finish. Today it feels very accessible and shows the beauty of mature Margaux in a lighter, refined style.
Serve at a temperature of 16-18 ° C, we recommend a short decantation of approximately 30 minutes before serving. It goes well with veal, poultry, finer game or mushroom dishes.

Château Margaux
Château Margaux is located in the commune of the same name in the Haut-Médoc region and is one of the most famous wine estates in Bordeaux. Along with Lafite, Latour, and Haut-Brion, it is one of the four estates awarded the Premier Cru (1st Growth) category during the original Bordeaux Médoc classification of 1855.
Margaux is generally considered the most elegant of the 1st Growths and is consistently among the most expensive wines in the world. The dominant blend of Cabernet Sauvignon is complemented by a small amount of Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc.
The vineyard at Château Margaux has a complex combination of soils unique to this area. They consist of chalky clay beneath a top layer of coarse and fine gravel, which is very well-suited for Cabernet Sauvignon.
