Description
Château Pavie 1998
St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)
u. bn, 5 slightly scuffed labels, 2 nicked labels
The first Perse vintage here. Smells very "irony". New wooden vats this year. Very dense textured. Almost minty. Very "Californian". Very low-yield wine plus stirring of the lees. In 2009, a real grand vin nose. Class. Many layered. A really plummy taste. Cloves. Utterly juicy. Excellent. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
