The ‘16 Pavillon Blanc is showing well now, though I expect it might be better yet with a few more years of age. Balancing cool and tropical fruit with a floral nuance, this is a wine both of structure and finesse.
There’s also a separate note about Pavillon Blanc with making. Whereas previously you’d need to worry about the very high incidence of premox, the introduction of Diam from the 2017 vintage onward

Minerals, limestone and some petroleum features. Lemon or citrus rind notes. Highly complex yet somewhat disappointing. There are plenty of equally good or better white Bordeaux for a better price point.

Plenty of crisp acidity here in a structured package. A very refined white Bordeaux with great mineral cut. Young with a grippy, taut finish and in need of more bottle age. 92+

white flowers, lemon, passion fruit, starfruit, lime, fresh cut herbs, a hint of spice and slate
fresh and energetic. fruit is lively and has weight, slightly rich.
ALMOST tastes like white burgundy.

Just squeezed lemons, hints of flowers, tropical accents, green apple and a few drops of honey make this a delicious, round, sweet, fresh, character driven, white Bordeaux wine.
