Yes! Brilliant, even if early it’s long life. Such as a nice expression of chardonnay that was placed in our lives for food ,.,. Oysters for me this time. — 18 days ago

Intoxicating nose. Tres Bordeaux, complex, high bore, intriguing. On the palate, this is youthful, red fruited, tart and fresh.
Drinking lovely at the moment. Still has some future. — 9 days ago

+1 hour decant(decent chunky sediment). A splendid brooding magenta color. On the nose: Seductive perfumed notes of dark fruit, cassis, vanilla, pencil shavings, smokey cedar, tobacco leaf. Taste: creamy, structured wine with cherry/plum, graphite, tar, earth, espresso, and a dry medium plus leather finish. YUM! — a month ago

2003 vintage. *Full disclosure* Not the biggest Pavie fan as I've consistently found it underwhelming for the commanding pricing and eternally in need of yet "another hour" in a decanter. Great fill and opened with a Durand but feel that the cork (in great shape) would have come out decently easy with a standard wine key. Given my issues with Pavie in the past, brought over two decanters so as to agitate the wine between them four times. Initial pass, good amount of sediment with the vast majority of it caked onto the sides of the bottle. Yay! Great boysenberry/raspberry nose noted during the first decant. Tasted after two hours. Medium body. Some earth, the aforementioned berries and hints of rich chocolate cake, including frosting, on the scene. Despite all the lavished attention and fuss, still suspect this would show better twelve hours later at breakfast with waffles and Count Chocula cereal. High-maintenance for the bean-counters. 9.26.26. — 2 months ago

2013 vintage. Medium body. Spicy oak. Some mineral qualities. Drinking nicely now as a unified effort with all the components pulling the rope in the same direction. 11.2.26. — 12 days ago

Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (53%), Merlot (35%), Petit Verdot (7%) and Cabernet Franc (5%). Aromas of red and black fruit, pencil shavings, iodine and light cedar. Complex flavors of black berry/raspberry/plum fruit, dark chocolate, black licorice, black tea and a hint of orange zest. Long and satiny finish. Vibrant acidity and well softened tannins. Silky texture and beautifully balanced. Perfectly aged. — a month ago
