Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2014

The 2011 Pavie is composed of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon (14.3% alcohol). It possesses a certain approachability, which is somewhat disarming for the big, robust, super-concentrated and...

The Wine Independent, December 2023

The 2011 Pavie is deep garnet in color. It slowly emerges from the glass with notes of cast-iron pan, black olives, garrigue, and damp soil giving way to a core of juicy blackcurrants, prunes, and black truffles. The...

Neal Martin's Wine Journal, April 2012

Tannic, young and stony at this stage, if you have a bottle give it 3- 5 years in the cellar, or 2-4 hours in the decanter. 93 Points Read more...

Vinous, April 2022

(92+ points) The 2011 Pavie has a distinctly earthy bouquet, well-defined with some expressive Cabernet Franc. A little savory, with dried blood developing in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with heavily-extracted...

Wine Enthusiast, May 2012

(90-92 points) Barrel sample. Here is a ripe and juicy wine that pushes forward with delicious blackberry fruits. There is a tense edge of acidity that then brings out denser tannins, but juiciness characterizes this...
