The Pavillon blanc 1987 from Château Margaux in Bordeaux, France is a testament to the skill and tradition of winemaking in this renowned region. On the nose, delicate scents of white flowers and ripe peach mingle with subtle hints of honey and toasted almonds. Its pale golden hue, with a slight green tinge, hints at its maturity and complexity. On the palate, this wine reveals layers of flavour, from juicy pineapple and tropical fruit to tangy lemon and zesty minerals. Its creamy texture is balanced by a refreshing acidity, leading to a long and satisfying finish. The 1987 vintage was a challenging one, but this wine has defied the odds and aged gracefully, showcasing the true potential of Bordeaux whites. A true gem for any wine enthusiast.
