Domaine Pavelot (Jean-Marc et Hugues)
La Dominode Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Punching miles above its weight, there’s a certain gravitas to this Pavelot that’s both cerebral and emotive. Viscosity and grip mark a precise tannic frame with delicate notes of black tea, black cherry and pomegranate. I think I paid <C$50 for this. Has years to go.

Nov 23rd, 2014Absolutely perfect Pinot noir profile. Ripe and full of flavor. Not over blown like some '09s.
