Description
The 2021 Pavillon Rouge charms with its soft structure, sensual character and openness. The wine reveals an expressive palette of red and purple fruits, rose petals, a touch of leather and sweet spices, which immediately invites tasting. Underlying, a lively energy and clarity provide balance and refinement. The aromatic intensity is elegant and uplifting, which makes the wine exceptionally seductive. Made from a blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc, this wine represents 30% of that year's harvest.

Grilled entrecote with rosemary potatoes and green asparagus
The structure and tannins of the wine match the fat and juiciness of an entrecote. The spicy touch of rosemary and the slightly bitter asparagus enhance the freshness and floral character of the wine.Beef stew with carrot, celery and thyme
A classic stew brings out the depth and fruity complexity of the wine. The combination of slow-cooked beef and aromatic vegetables forms a harmonious match with the mineral freshness and soft tannins of the Pavillon Rouge.Roasted chicken with garlic, lemon and Provencal herbs
The elegant, medium body of this wine makes it surprisingly suitable for poultry. The spiciness and fresh acidity in the dish complement the refined balance in the wine.Pasta with mushrooms, truffle oil and Parmesan cheese
The earthy flavors of mushrooms and the umami profile of Parmesan cheese bring out the floral and dark fruit aromas in the wine, while truffle oil provides a luxurious contrast to the finesse of the wine.Baked duck breast with fig compote and parsnip puree
The sweet and savoury elements of this dish reflect the complexity of the wine. The combination with figs and parsnips brings out the elegant character of the blend, especially the Merlot and Petit Verdot.Ravioli filled with candied lamb shoulder, caramelized onion and sage butter sauce
The richness of the lamb and the soft sweetness of the onion create a layered experience. The freshness and floral notes of the wine keep things lively, while the structure remains intact with the rich dish.

Parker
The 2021 Pavillon Rouge offers up aromas of raspberries, sweet cherries and white flowers, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively palate that's quite taut and youthfully structured out of the gates, with good depth at the core and powdery tannins. It will reward a bit of bottle age.

From: 2021 Bordeaux En Primeur: Back to Classicism (May 2022)
The 2021 Pavillon Rouge is soft, sensual and open-knit, all qualities that make it an absolute delight to taste today. A burst of red/purplish fruit, rose petal, leather and sweet spice gives the 2021 its upfront appeal. There's lovely energy and brightness underpinning it all. Soaring aromatic top notes add allure, making it impossible to resist a second taste.

“We had some frost issues, but not a lot of mildew pressure,” explained Managing Director Philippe Bascaules. “Dry extract numbers were pretty much in line with 2019, although the chemistry of the wines is different. We saigneed some lots and chaptalized others lightly, as needed.” One of the more pragmatic administrators in the Médoc, Bascaules is quite adamant about a flexible farming regime that allows the vineyard team to intervene as needed. As for the wines, they are absolutely gorgeous.

"Classically balanced Pavillon Rouge, fairly restrained in its fruits, good tannic structure, very much on the plum and bilberry fruits. There is a lovely balance here, with freshness, less exuberant than the 2018 yet with a quiet sense of building and delivering momentum. As it opens, rose petal and peony aromatics begin to hover above the glass, enticing you in. There is a lot going on here, and it’s a successful wine with juicy perfumed fruit."
