Pavillon La Tourelle

Château Margaux

Pavillon Blanc White Bordeaux Blend 2020

Tasted this one blind. First thing i wrote in my notes was ”really tasty”. I thought this was a Sancerre with some oak. Really fresh with depth. Not a combination I usually find in a wine like this. Impressive. — a month ago

Château Pavillon Figeac

St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

This is surprisingly good for a bargain-priced St. Emmie. Nose shows clear, ripe plummy Merlot fruit, some clay-inflected earth, some underbrush, and subtle, pleasant vegetal note. Very nice balance and mouthfeel. Not a bruiser, but more on the elegant side. Fruit, tannin, acids all nicely dancing together. I like this a lot! — a month ago

@Tom Casagrande, I have always had a soft spot for St. Emilion, my favorite of all the Bordeaux communes (well, at least taking pricing into account)!!

Château Léoville Poyferré

Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré Saint Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

Mild bouquet of dusty dark fruit. Quick mild sour cherries upfront with a dusty fruit mild tobacco finish. Definitely old world style. — 4 months ago

Maison Albert Bichot

Domaine du Pavillon Clos des Ursulines Pommard Pinot Noir 2020

2020 vintage. This alternate property naming nonsense is a real pita for a wine list. Trying to keep it G-rated but biting my tongue something fierce. Despite all that, still picked this up. Plenty of headaches but oodles of staying power. 11.20.24. — a month ago

"Le Pavillon" Ermitage Syrah 2020

Power, poise and precision. Black fruit galore, spice, bacon and butcher shop, bonfire, smoke, olives, garrique - an incredible nose that gave me goosebumps. Perfect balance, immense intensity and just spot on. — 2 months ago

Maison Albert Bichot

Domaine du Pavillon Meursault Pinot Noir 2014

Sturdy. Plenty of oak and tannin with highish acid. Needs a couple hours of air then starts to open up. Intensely structured wine. Not giving up a ton of fruit. Mushrooms and cranberries. Long finish. Yeah that’s pretty pretty good 👍🏼 — a month ago

Domaine du Pavillon de Chavannes

Cuvée des Ambassades Côte de Brouilly Gamay 2016

Redfruits, earthy, moderate structure, this seems mature and ready to drink, but is a nice Cru Beaujolais with moderate complexity. — 10 months ago
