96 Points - James Suckling

A plush and opulent Pavillon Rouge with plums, boysenberries and hints of cedar and chocolate. Full-bodied, with powdery tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Juicy and delicious, it is already highly attractive while retaining the structure expected from Chateau Margaux.

93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2022 Pavillon Rouge offers expressive aromas of raspberries and mulberries with licorice, anise and spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, it is concentrated and structured, with a substantial core of fruit supported by sweet, powdery tannins. It is a serious Pavillon Rouge that will reward patience.
