Chateau Margaux呢間一級莊相信都唔洗多介紹，一向都係世界頂級酒莊之一，連美國第一任駐法大使，後來成為第三任美國總統嘅Thomas Jefferson都讚嘆："無比Chateau Margaux更加好嘅波爾多酒"！
甚至喺當年1855分級時，Margaux都係唯一一間拎到20分滿分嘅一級莊！值得一提嘅係2001年時任中國國家主席胡錦濤到訪波爾多都係Chateau Margaux負責接待！
1908年Margaux副牌開始以Pavillon Rouge呢個名釀造，曾經喺1930-1970年代停產，去到1977年被Andre Mentzelopoulos接手後重新捲土重來～
Andre係令Margaux近代更上一層樓嘅靈魂人物，接手後一路請嚟唔少猛人大幅改善酒質同酒莊：有現代釀酒學之父嘅Emile Peynaud + Paul Pontallier + Philippe Bascaules, 令Margaux去到今日已經有4個Wine Advocate 100分 + 8個James Suckling 100分，而呢款2009年同年嘅正牌就係JS滿分之一！
雖然Margaux好尊重傳統，但亦會一路尋求可行嘅先進工藝～好早已經有分開唔同地塊發酵陳熟嘅概念，今時今時分到大約100桶！
Pavillon Rouge一向都好有正牌嘅影子，因為以前副牌嘅葡萄都係放入正牌釀造，90年代加入埋三牌酒後因為更嚴格嘅篩選更加令呢款副牌酒嘅質素大大提高！

The wine is rich, open and generous. The bold black fruits mask the tannins and bring out the fine balance between structure and fruit. Drink this very fine wine from 2026.

This is wonderful to taste, with plums, berries, strawberries, and flowers. It's full and creamy textured, with gorgeous ripe tannins and a long, long finish. Such balance. Amazing tannin quality. Second wine of Margaux. One of best Pavillon Rouges ever.

This is an absolutely killer combination of vibrant, plush red fruits and finely-wrought tannins that are still working hard on the silky-smooth palate. With vibrant edging to the colour and a gorgeous, mouthwatering finish, this is a near-perfect Pavillon - ready to enjoy now but will go long. Great stuff, and bodes well for the rest of the vintage in Margaux.

Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2009 Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux features an expressive, beautifully floral nose of dried roses and candied violets over a core of kirsch, Black Forest cake and fragrant earth with touches of black tea and cigar box. Medium-bodied, the palate is soft, plush, elegant and open-knit with an effortlessness to its character and a perfumed finish.

The 2009 Pavillon Rouge de Château Margaux has quite a Pauillac-inspired bouquet. Fresh and lively touches of pencil box and leather infuse the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, fresh and vibrant and conveying an irresistible sense of energy. It is not a deep or densely structured Margaux but it feels long and tender.

Very sleek, with a lovely winey edge to the plum, cassis and blackberry fruit, laced with roasted apple wood, lilac and singed iron notes. Tangy and lengthy, with ample depth, but also nearly approachable now.
