Château Pavie Macquin 2005 (12 BT)

Château Pavie Macquin 2005

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (B)

Capsules slightly scuffed by case dividers

This has real aromatic complexity on the nose. Lots of fresh acidity, a feature of this great year. A real keeper, with huge fruit, tannin and flavour. Finishes on a note of black fruit and smoky tobacco. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
