2011 Ch. Pavie Macquin, St. Emilion

Ch. Pavie Macquin, St. Emilion
Nicholas Thienpont has once again produced a range of delicious wines from the clutch of estates where he is in charge of the winemaking. Ch. Pavie Macquin displays a tight-knit kernel of explosively ripe fruit on the mid-palate, a silky texture and beautiful balance, with enticing aromas of ripe berry fruit.

Last year Nicolas managed to produce a wine of freshness and charm despite the high alcohol levels which prevailed on the Right Bank, and once again he has worked the oracle here. This has great finesse and very fine-grained tannins.

Ch. Pavie Macquin, St. Emilion
Contrast of ripe, 'confit' aromatics and firm, muscular structure. A steely acidity emphasising the latter. Volume and depth but a bit of a bruiser that will need time.

Ch. Pavie Macquin, St. Emilion
Quite expressive, offering bright blueberry and raspberry aromas and flavors, with lots of lightly toasted spice flittering through the long, silky finish. Showing lovely purity, this is a really beautiful, tender expression for the vintage.
