Château Pavie

2001 Château Pavie, 1er Grand Cru Classe A Saint-Emilion AOC, Chateau Pavie Falstaff: Mittleres Rubingranat, zart unterockert, breiterer Wasserrand. Gereifte Nuancen im Bukett, zart animalische Anklänge, etwas Brombeeren und Cassis, floraler Touch. Saftig, gute Komplexität, dunkelbeerige Frucht, straffe, tragende Tannine, sehr gute Länge, extraktsüß im Abgang, mit gutem Potenzial ausgestattet, ein Wein, nach dem man Ausschau halten sollte.   James Suckling: This is really beautiful and decadent with mushroom, chocolate, plum and sliced-meat character. Even some foie gras. Full-bodied, tight and linear. Racy finish. Delicious now and beyond.  Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: A great showing for this wine in the mini-vertical, the 2001 Pavie has a slight lightening at the edge of its dark garnet/plum/purple color and a big, sweet kiss of cedar wood, incense, licorice, blackberry and lead pencil shavings. The wine is dense, very rich, multilayered and finishes with at least a 40- to 45-second aftertaste. This wine seems to be close to full maturity, but should hold there for easily another 15-20 years. It’s a sleeper of the vintage. (RP) Wine Spectator: This is hitting its stride now, with a very focused core of raspberry, plum and red currant fruit that is showing some secondary notes while melding perfectly with the singed alder and cedar flavors and tobacco and black tea accents. Mineral and sanguine hints chime in on the finish, which lingers with a sense of elegance. Really nice now, but there's no rush. Drink now through 2030. Jancis Robinson: Richly enveloping nose. Borderline overripeness. Hot chocolate! Thick and sweet and sort of carved out of stone. Quite porty but with some freshness of fruit. Exaggerated but pleasurable. Drying tannins on the finish. Pretty luscious.
