2023 Château Margaux Pavillon Blanc

Since the early 18th century, Château Margaux has been producing an exceptional and unique white wine. Historically known as Château Margaux Vin Blanc de Sauvignon, it was given its current name Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux in 1920. In its quest for excellence, the estate now selects less than half of the harvest for blending Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux. Drastic selection is made possible through extensive understanding of the soil and leads to optimal ripeness, harvesting and refinement of winemaking and maturation techniques. This rigorous work has not only improved the quality of Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux, but also resulted in a second selection of such high quality that the estate decided to bottle it from the 2022 vintage.

Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, like Pavillon Blanc du Château Margaux, and produced from the estate's historic vines, Pavillon Blanc Second Vin will be appreciated in its youth and will age harmoniously for at least twenty years. The 11-hectare vineyard is composed exclusively of Sauvignon Blanc, with old vines (50 years old) on clay and limestone soils that generate very low yields (15 to 20 hl/ha). Only 8,000 bottles were produced for this first vintage.
