Pavillon blanc du Château Margaux
On the gravel ridges of the Médoc, in Bordeaux, Pavillon blanc du Château Margaux is crafted as a rare counterpoint to the estate’s celebrated reds and its white tradition reaching back to the early 18th century.
The vineyard is just about eleven hectares of Sauvignon Blanc, planted on an old plot once devoted to red vines and reshaped in part for its spring‑frost risk. Since 2009/2010, every detail has been tightened: deeper soil and parcel understanding, more severe selection, and an élevage built for texture—often with time on lees and carefully judged oak rather than obvious sweetness.
Only roughly a third of the harvest is bottled under the Pavillon Blanc label, a decision that defines the wine’s discipline. It is Sauvignon interpreted through tension, mineral line and quiet craftsmanship, not through overt aromatic display.Pavillon blanc du Château Margaux
