Merchant's description
Pavillon Rouge is the second wine from the prestigious Château Margaux, which currently produces four wines in total. The 1996 vintage is in an excellent shape right now, a fully mature Bordeaux, boasting notes of black currants, kirsch, hints of bell pepper, plenty of graphite and an overall lifted freshness.
