Description
Pavillon Rouge du Chateau Margaux, Margaux, 2005
The second wine of Chateau Margaux. Levels IN, excellent appearance, case sealed with chateau bands prior to photography. Tasted blind. Racy and exciting. Lots of vigour and supple fruit. Very classy - though a note of coconut came in. Still quite a bit of tannin on the end, but it should all resolve itself pretty well. Jancis Robinson (February 2017) JancisRobinson.com
This superb collection is part of the estate of a passionate wine lover who generously shared his knowledge and bottles with family and friends. Acquired over the past two decades from well-respected UK merchants, the collection brims with wines both for current drinking and future enjoyment: Claret, Sauternes, Rhone and Tuscan wines were particular favourites, not forgetting New World regions and fabulous Vintage Ports. All lots were meticulously stored in a temperature-controlled cellar in an imposing Bath stone townhouse and recently packed by Bid for Wine before transfer to LCB.
