Vintage 2020

Written Notes

2020  Château Pavie Macquin St. Émilion Grand Cru Inky in color, with dark purple accents, the wine explodes with flowers, incense, licorice, black fruit and touches of blueberries. Rich, intense, flamboyant, sensuous and silky, this hits all your pleasure buttons simultaneously. The wine paints your palate with layers of decadently ripe fruit that is simultaneously sweet, fresh and dense. The seamless finish does not quit. Instead it builds and expands, growing in intensity and complexity. This is going to be stunning with a decade or so of aging. 96-98  Pts

  • 98p

Opulent and rich wine with intense purple colour, violet hue and black core. Rich nose with aroma reminiscent of blackberries, juicy plums and black cherries, hints of sloe and elderberry jam in the background. On the palate very elegant with distinct oak, fine toasting flavour, hints of dark chocolate and mild spices. Excellent structure, depth and length, with freshness and an appealing and expressive finish.
