[Les Aromes de Pavie 2017]

Robert Parker rating: 93/100

When it comes to famous Bordeaux wines, people often say, "On the left bank, there's Lafite; on the right bank, there's Pavie."Chateau Pavie is located in the Saint Emilion region on the right bank of Bordeaux, France, and has a very long history.The vineyard's soil consists of the most common limestone and brown clay found on the right bank. The average age of the vines is 40 years, and the grapes are all hand-picked before being placed in large stainless steel barrels for fermentation.

Since 2005, the second wine of Chateau Pavie has been renamed "Aromes de Pavie."Mainly from younger vines, but vinified as rigorously as the grand vin, it is soft, balanced and elegant, with a cigar box, blackcurrant and black cherry perfume, and is a wine worth trying if you want a taste of Chateau Pavie's right bank entry-level red wine.Generally speaking, traditional French wines are soft, balanced, and elegant, while New World wines are full of personality, power, and wildness. However, the wines from this estate are an exception.Although Barolo originates from France, it carries the inherent elegance and balance of French wines, while also possessing the personality and power of New World wines.

This wine presents a deep garnet purple color, with earthy aromas of fertile soil, mossy bark, and truffles, and at its core, the scents of plum preserves, chocolate cherries, and cinnamon sticks. The body is medium to full-bodied, with a palate full of bright fruitiness and vibrancy, composed of wonderful soft tannins and bold freshness, with a spicy finish.
