CHÂTEAU PAVIE MACQUIN 2005 (1)
Saint-Émilion. Premier Grand Cru Classé B
u. vts. scuffed label.
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. June 2015 WA 96+
Realised: $420
