Excl. tax

Intense, fresh and refined nose of raspberry, berries. Finely structured body, which goes to the air.
It is a new style for Pavie Macquin of a particular beauty, more ethereal, less earthly than in the past.
Beautiful finish with an aromatic sparkle.

Blend: 84% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon

Critical Acclaim:

98 Points, James Suckling

So much violet and lilac aromas to this with blackberry and blueberry character, too. Full-bodied and delivering limestone, chalk and lavender on the palate. Great structure, too. Needs four or five years to soften. Better in 2022.

97 Points, Wine Enthusiast

This is a beautifully crafted, structured wine. From its ripe black-currant fruits through the acidity and tense tannins, to the full, generous aftertaste, the wine impresses. It has great fruit, balanced acidity and a good potential. Drink from 2025. (Cellar Selection)

96 Points, Wine Spectator

Ripe, pure and expressive, with a beautiful panoply of loganberry, plum and red currant preserve flavors that meld seamlessly with anise and singed apple wood details and a subtle chalky spine. A bright floral accent on the finish lifts this up a register and lets it sail on, holding that note. Best from 2020 through 2040.
