1/28/2014 - Man in Black wrote: NRClear and bright, deep garnet colour and presence of legs. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium+ intensity aromas of dark plums, blackberries, cassis, truffle, vanilla, cedar and walnuts. The wine is dry with a medium+ acidity, high fine grained tannins, medium alcohol, full body and pronounced intensity flavours of blackberries, dark plums, truffle, cedar and walnuts. Long finish. |

5/27/2016 - jonanator wrote: NRThis showed better last year. Just didn't quite have the same captivating nose and wasn't quite as developed on the palate. This almost seemed like it was a few years younger than the last bottle. They were purchased separately so that could be why. This wine still hinted at its potential though, and just seemed like it wasn't ready to go. |

This wine is drinking at peak right now and I found this to be the best bottle yet. I can't believe how much better this is drinking now than a few years ago, when it was just "good". The nose was utterly captivating. I am happy to have saved a few bottles. Drinking well after a splash decant. |

4/10/2018 - Comte Flaneur wrote: 94 pointsIt took a bit to open with lovely Margaux berries, minerality and lead pencil. Cool fruited and svelte, a wine with verve and the Chateau Margaux signature. Waltzed and pirouetted around its comparatively lead-footed Giscours flight-mate. |

1/17/2018 - Comte Flaneur wrote: 94 pointsInspiring, thrilling and beguiling entry of Margaux berries in full bloom with faint notes of lead pencil, mineral and rock, in a classy, cool fruited attack, leading onto a super svelte, deft palate, and decent finish, with some residual grippy tannin. So light on its feet, this is a class act; medium-bodied with immaculate balance and elegance, it doesn’t have the power and concentration of a big vintage of Chateau Margaux, but this could easily pass for the Grand Vin in a lighter vintage. Simply magical for a second Wine. |

3/2/2010 - Yiannis wrote: 92 pointsTasted blind alongside another 5 Bordeaux second labels, from the 2004 vintage (with one exception) it was easily identified as margaux and was declared W.O.T.N. with Alter Ego of Palmer as the only serious contender. The 2 wines were equivalent on the nose, but the Pavillon Rouge was superior on the palate. Dark ruby-purple. Sweet aromas of red berries, flowers, sweet spices, hints of leather and graphite. Mid-full bodied, round with fine-grained tanins, nice fruit and high acidity. Very long finish. Excellent. Now-2018. |

10/8/2021 - dchain Likes this wine: 92 pointsBeautiful ruby. Young and vibrant looking. Lovely nose of light cassis, black cherry and lily. More peppery and spice notes emerge later. Totally ready and all in balance and integrated. Wonderful cedar and tobacco on the palate, balanced and uplifting acidity with generous rounded fruit. So we’ll made, mid-weight but in a good way making it so enjoyable but with so much going on. Delicious stuff! |

2/1/2015 - Burgundynick Likes this wine: 92 pointsOpened, decanted back into the bottle left for 2 hours and drank over 3 hours. It is very good. Drank it alongside a 98 Lynch Bages and this wasn't as good. It was very smooth and full of cigar box and blackcurrants. Very enjoyable and very nice but the Lynch Bages was a couple of points ahead of it. 92 Points |

It was very nice and subtle with everything in place, everyone else enjoyed it also. I have 5 more bottles and will drink another soon. 90 points |

4/15/2024 - SimonG wrote: 92 pointsJonathan’s/Nick’s 04 Bordeaux (Hawksmoor Guildhall, London): Dense ruby. Broader and meatier on the nose, less precise with some blackcurrant leaf alongside the fruit. Broader palate too, accentuated by being 2–3C° warmer too. Quite rich with less precise definition. A bit more Henry Moore than David; fun though. **** |

7/25/2013 - GA Old World Guy wrote: 90 pointsNot the best Pavillon I have ever had, but this is the second 2004 Bordeaux I have had recently and neither had much fruit flavor, so it could be that they are just closed down right now. This one lacked fruit flavor and never really gave off that "Pavillon" nose that I have become accustomed to. Will try again in a few years. |

4/15/2024 - NickA Likes this wine: 92 pointsAnother 2004 horizontal (Hawksmoor Guildhall): Initially more attractive than the Rauzan, its charms much more conventional. Big, rich, smoky nose, with some exotic musk. Smooth and luxurious on the palate, with attractive blue fruit. Tannins now very well integrated, but there was a nice chew to the finish. Definitely tasty, but the consensus seemed to be that the Rauzan ultimately offered more interest. |
