Weinwisser
Purpur mit rubinrotem Rand. 75 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 18 % Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 2 % Cabernet Franc, 36 hl/ha, 31% der Ernte (-20 % im vgl. zu 2019), 13.6 vol % Alkohol, pH wie in 2019, sehr kleine Beeren mit viel Konzentration, Gefahr durch Extraktion zu kraftvolle Weine zu schaffen. Verführerische Nase nach reifen Brombeeren, Alpenheidelbeeren, Cassiswürze und frischem Rosmarin. Am mittleren Gaumen mit samtiger Textur, anschmiegsame Tannine, wirken absorbiert, stützende Rasse, konsequent und dicht. Im gebündelten geradlinigen Finale schwarzbeerige Konturen, Estragon und helles Edelholz. Philippe liebt den klassischen Stil.
James Suckling
Blackberry and graphite with dark fruit and violets on the nose. Very complex. Full-bodied with lovely, fine tannins that are lightly chewy. Extremely long and polished. Really refined. Integrated tannins. Wonderful length.
Wine Advocate
The 2020 Pavillon Rouge is composed of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. The alcohol weighs in at 13.6%. Deep purple-black in color, the nose slowly unfurls to reveal gorgeous floral notes of lilacs and red roses, leading to a core of blackcurrant cordial, Morello cherries and minted blackberries, plus wafts of crushed rocks, forest floor and tilled loam. The medium to full-bodied palate is a mouthful of pure vinous seduction, slowly releasing layers of perfumed black fruits and mineral accents within a frame of achingly plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with epic length and a whole array of fragrant earth sparks.
