93-95 Barrel Sample. This wine has power and firm, extracted tannins that are so dry and layering, they cut right through the blackberry fruit. It is dense, showing rich fruitiness and a firm texture, as well as the promise to age.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

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 â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

The Wine Independent

Medium garnet in color, the 2013 Pavie comes bounding out with ready-to-go notes of kirsch, redcurrant jelly, and stewed plums giving way to hints of dried lavender, wild sage, and cumin seed. The medium-bodied palate is lively and vibrant, with a refreshing backbone lifting the red berry flavors to a long, wonderfully pure finish. A lot of sorting was performed this year, with about half the average crop.

Wine Spectator

A success for the vintage, with racy-edged damson plum, red currant and bitter cherry fruit backed by a bright savory and tobacco edge. A touch crisp, as is the vintage as a whole, but an admirable effort nonetheless.—Non-blind Pavie vertical (March 2017). Best from 2018 through 2028. 5,000 cases made.

Wine Advocate

The 2013 Pavie was actually quite reticent on the nose compared to the 2013 Bellevue Mondotte, gently unfolding with mulberry, forest floor and wild mint aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, gently gripping the mouth with a touch of chalkiness underneath the caressing finish. There is a little chewiness here and as I suspected, it might actually be the Pavie-Decesse that is the best wine within Gérard Perse's portfolio.

Roasted meat, charcoal and wet earth on the nose, but also some blackberry fruit. On the full front palate the berry fruit is really there, but then the tannins come through and dominate the finish, making it feel quite chewy. Maybe more time in bottle will help this wine. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.

Vinous Media

Dark red. Plum, blackberry and blueberry on the fruit-driven nose. Fresh and clean on the palate, with spicy dark fruit flavors that are less dense than usual for this wine, in the style of the year. Finishes with a hint of leafiness but also with excellent balance, youthful tannins and sneaky concentration. Will make lovely earlier-than-usual drinking.
