Pavillon Rouge is the second wine of Château Margaux, one of the most prestigious Bordeaux producers. It is crafted with the same attention to detail as the estate`s Grand Vin but is typically produced from younger vines or parcels that don`t make it into the final blend for Château Margaux. The 2020 vintage was made from a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc. While the yields were lower than usual in 2020, the small grapes gave way to concentrated and high-quality juices.
