Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux

1980
This attractive wine has lost its freshness, but kept a great deal of finesse and complexity on the the nose. It should, of course, be enjoyed as soon as possible.

Climate

A disastrous cold, rainy spring held back the flowering, which only took place at the end of June. There was mixed weather in the summer, but fortunately September was sunny and hot. After a rainy start to October, dry, cold weather set in, enabling us to harvest, albeit very late, sufficiently ripe and perfectly healthy grapes. (The picking began 17th October)
