  "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zarte Edelholz-Kräuter-Würze, schwarze Waldbeeren, etwas Nougat, ein Hauch von Roten Ribiseln, kandierte Orangenzesten, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, elegant, feine Süße, reife Tannine, finessenreich strukturiert, bereits sehr gut entwickelt und sofort mit Genuss zu trinken, der Wein hat sich seit En Primeur, wo er noch deutlich straffer wirkte, wundervoll entwickelt, ist zugänglich und voll Charme, sicher ein Ausnahmewein."

  "A plush and opulent Pavillon Rouge with plums, boysenberries and hints of cedar and chocolate. Full-bodied, this has lovely powdery tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Juicy and delicious, it's so attractive now that it’s hard not to drink. Second wine of Chateau Margaux. 64% cabernet sauvignon, 24% merlot, 7% petit verdot and 5% cabernet franc. Best after 2028."

  "Bottled in July, the inky-hued 2022 Château Margaux Pavillon Rouge offers a classic nose of ripe black raspberries, cassis, spring flowers, spice oak, and graphite. This leads to a medium to full-bodied Margaux with remarkable purity, a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, plenty of tannins, and a great finish."

  "Impressive black currant fruit aromas and ripe, silky tannins mark this second wine of Margaux. It is a juicy wine with black fruits and a fine concentration. This fine wine should be ready from 2027."

  Weinwisser
  "64 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 24 % Merlot, 7 % Petit Verdot, 5 % Cabernet Franc, 25 hl/ha, pH 3.63. Feingliedriges rotbeeriges Bouquet, ein dichter Fliederstrauß, heller Tabak und Eisenkraut. Am mittleren, aber dichten Gaumen mit weicher Textur, reifem Extrakt, stützender Rasse und engmaschigem Tanningerüst. Im gebündelten feinaromatischen Finale blaubeerige Konturen, man spürt die 14.8 Vol.-% überhaupt nicht, da ist alles in Balance."

  Decanter
  "Dark blue cherries, violets, and milk chocolate on the nose - enticing and opulent. Super perfumed, jumping from the glass. Supple and lively, with bright acidity giving a crisp outer shell and direct, linear core. Cooling mint freshness and a dusting of salinity add finesse. Muscular yet smooth, well-built with strong backbone and spice. First Pavillon with such a high level of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, adding structure. Concentrated but refined, with real tension. An excellent Pavillon. 3.63pH."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Showing a nice depth of color, the wine pops with aromas of flowers, cocoa, black cherries, blackberries, and cigar box. Sensuous, silky, and fresh, with layers of sweet, dark, red fruits, elegant textures, and purity, the creamy end notes seal the deal. The wine was made from blending 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, and 5% Cabernet Franc, 14.8% ABV. Drink from 2025-2040."
