Why We're Buying
No, Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux is not the same as Château Margaux. In fact, the estate even had a label until 1906 to make that distinction clear. Still, it rivals the legendary grand vin of its counterpart. Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux is one of the most expensive second wines in France, retailing upward of $250.
Critics Scores

You could easily mistake the 2022 Pavillon Rouge De Margaux for the Grand Vin here, and truth be told, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this actually evolve better than some of the Grand Vins from just over 10-15 years ago. A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot (the second wine got all the Petit Verdot in 2022), it offers a deep, medium to full-bodied, seamless profile as well as solid framboise, darker raspberry, currants, sandalwood, and spice aromatics, silky tannins, and outstanding length. The purity and precision paired with this level of texture and richness far exceeds the vast majority of second wines out there. 94-96
