Description:
ChateauPavie Macquin2005
St. Emilion, Premier Grand Cru Classe (B)
"Inky bluish/purple in color, Pavie Macquin produced a prodigious effort from St.-Emilion in 2005. Its crushed, chalky rock minerality, massive body, and high tannin make for a wine to forget for another decade. Super-loaded, concentrated and powerful, this wine should turn out great, but patience will be required. The blackberry and cassis fruit are there in abundance, but so is a massive structure. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035." R. Parker for TWA, 96+ pts. 06/15
12 bottles (owc)
Estimate $1,200-1,450
