Opulent and delicious with lots of green mango and pineapple aromas and flavors. Smoked cream and green apples. Showing salty, briny character, it’s dense but not heavy, flavorful and very long. Pear-drop candy at the end. Pure sauvignon blanc, as always. Rich yet lively and wonderful. Feels like a great Montrachet. One for the cellar. 8,000 bottles made. You just want to drink it. Drink or hold.

Varietal

White Bordeaux

France is widely known as being the home of many of the world's finest white wines, and within France, the name which rings out across the wine world and is always associated with excellence of quality and flavor is Bordeaux. The white wines of the magnificent Bordeaux region are typically blended, and rely on the winemaker's skill and expertise to achieve the fine balance between the primary grape varietals used. Most blended white Bordeaux wines are made up of Sauvignon Blanc, SÃ©millon and Muscadelle varietals, although there are actually nine grapes officially allowed by French wine law for the inclusion in Bordeaux white wines. The other six are Sauvignon Gris, Merlot Blanc, Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Ondenc and Mauzac, although the use of these other grapes has been in steady decline over the past century.

Appellation

Margaux

The Margaux appellation of France's legendary Bordeaux wine region is one of the world's most famous and highly respected viticultural areas. For centuries, Margaux has been deeply associated with extremely fine wines of the highest quality, made using traditional and time-honored techniques in order to extract the very best, most refined and elegant flavors and aromas from the Bordeaux varietal grapes which grow there. Margaux wines are almost always blended, using two or three key Bordeaux grapes, commonly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc (amongst others). The blending techniques and quantities have been passed down through the generations in the ancestral chateaus which make up the region, and quality and prestige has never been allowed to falter, making Margaux one of the undisputed jewels in France's already glittering crown.

Harvested from the 18th of August, the 2022 Château Margaux Pavillon Blanc has a classic Margaux vibrancy and crisp style that belies the warmth and sunny nature of the vintage. Gorgeous citrus, crushed stone, mint, and sappy, floral nuances all define the aromatics, and it’s medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, layered, seamless mouthfeel, bright acidity (pH 3.10), and a great finish. Give it a few years and enjoy over the following decade.

Wine Advocate

The 2022 Pavillon Blanc has turned out elegantly, wafting from the glass with aromas of white flowers, boxwood, pear, mango and lemongrass. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and layered, it exhibits good depth at the core, bright acids and an attractively mordant finish. This has tightened up in bottle, to the extent that the warmth of the vintage would likely only be visible in a comparative tasting with a cooler year.

Vinous Media

The 2022 Pavillon Blanc has a refined bouquet with deftly integrated oak, fine tension and purity of fruit. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, a pleasing brightness and tension, with ample weight on the finish. Classy. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.

The Wine Independent

This is 100% Sauvignon Blanc as always, and represents 50% of the crop, after picking in mid-August, the earliest picking for the whites here. The other 50% was split between a second wine for the first time, and the rest sold in bulk as usual. A beautifully expressive and pure Sauvignon Blanc nose, with delicately bitter citrus fruits, peach skin and smoky matchstick. The palate is broad shouldered, with a soft and supple presence, easy-going and filled with powdery texture, but a very light presence of acidity reflecting the warmth of 2022, and some phenolic grip. It lacks a little form for me, but this is the overarching style of whites in 2022 I feel. This will probably age on those phenolics but I doubt it will tighten up. The alcohol on the label is 13.5%.
