Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux, 2010

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

The cool summer conditions and lack of water have leant themselves as much to the dry whites as the super reds in 2010. This Pavillon Blanc is aromatically complex with notes of gooseberries, citrus fruits, honeysuckle and lemon pith. This possesses wonderful concentration and racy acidity; taut, mineral and just a hint of saline. Mouth wateringly refreshing.

critic reviews

87-90/100Ian d'Agata,Vinous

Pale straw. Rather inexpressive nose hints at gooseberry, grapefruit, chalk and talcum powder. Much fruitier on the palate, offering ripe melon and fig notes. Finishes clean and moderately long. The yield here was a reported 30 hectoliters per hectare but I don't get quite the concentration I would have expected from that crop level.
