Blackcurrants, blue fruits, crushed stone, chocolate, and massive amounts of minerality all emerge from the 2022 Château Pavie Macquin, a more burly, incredibly concentrated Pavie Macquin that has a lively, vibrant mouthfeel, ripe, building, substantial tannins, and a gorgeous finish. Based on the normal 80% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, it’s a riveting, powerful 2022 that’s built for the cellar. Hide bottles for a solid decade if you can, and it will have 40 years of overall longevity.
There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act – the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.
France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey. Whether you’re new to the world of wine or a seasoned enthusiast looking […]

The beautiful sub-region of Saint Emilion in France's legendary Bordeaux region is regarded as the home of many of the world's finest red wines. The blending techniques employed in Saint Emilion have been passed down for generations, and aim to express the very finest flavors of the grape varietals used, most commonly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc.

Fed by the mighty Gironde river and benefiting from superb clay and gravel based soils, Saint Emilion produces millions of bottles of high quality blended and unblended red wines each year, and continues to be a firm favorite of wine experts and the general public alike.

The intensity of raspberries, stones, chalk and sea salt is impressive. White pepper. Medium-bodied with really crunchy fruit yet the firm and creamy tannins are really well curated with a polished texture and superb finish. Long and powerful. Such energy. Try after 2029 but hard not to drink before.

The 2022 Pavie Macquin is stellar, as it was en primeur. Inky blue/purplish fruit, licorice, new leather, spice and plum run through this powerful Saint-Émilion. Silky in the glass, it boasts plush, seamless tannins and fine balance. As always, Pavie Macquin is very sexy—one of the most sensual and hedonistic wines of the vintage.

Strong aromatics of dried herbs, blackcurrant leaf, violets, cherries and chocolate. Fleshy and ripe in the mouth with both a sweet, sour and cool aspect to the juicy strawberry acidity that makes this so moreish and zingy in the mouth. Energetic and dynamic, concentrated and streamlined, there's so much to like here with really tasty terroir markers of wet stones, graphite and pencil lead. No sign of heat or overt oak which makes this even more enjoyable right now but this will also age excellently. Extremely classy and packed full of flavour.

The 2022 Pavie Macquin has turned out nicely, offering up aromas of dark berries, licorice, bay leaf and pencil shavings, followed by a medium to full-bodied, dense and layered palate that's lively, concentrated and controlled, with excellent integration and length. Youthfully reticent, it will require a bit of patience.

Gorgeously aromatic, this throws off aromas and flavors of violet, plum sauce, açaí berry puree and boysenberry preserves that are carried by the very polished structure. A subtle chalky thread curls through on the finish as the fruit lingers beautifully. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2027 through 2040.

I find lots of smoky intent on the nose of the 2022 Pavie-Macquin, which comes layered with dried cherry, wild rose petals, violets, crushed chalk, toast and tobacco. It reminds me of a young and pensive 2016. There is a very fine texture laden with ripe fruit and substance on the palate, holding up with a very structured and savoury character through the midpalate, with a rich wrapping of ripe tannins, before a finish of dark fruit, powdery grip and fresh acidity. A wine of significant tannic construct here, with masses of potential, as evinced by its long finish which is filled with lightly drying tannin. A rather bold and full-on interpretation of this terroir, this will need plenty of time to shake down. Tasted twice.
