Tasting Notes
Vinous 92
The 2022 Pavillon Rouge, which represents 32% of the production this year, has a highly perfumed nose with wilted violets chaperoning the copious black fruit. Wonderful definition. The palate is medium-bodied with fine boned tannins. Silky smooth and sensual, with a mineral-driven finish, this sashays along in style. One of the few 2022’s whose barrel sample is so seductive I could have eloped with it there and then. 14.8% alcohol.
Anticipated maturity: 2026-2048
