Château Pavie-Macquin--Vintage 2003
6 bottles per lot
Château Pavie-Macquin--Vintage 2003 Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé. Château-bottled Tasting note: This tremendous terroir has been brought back to life over the last 15 years by Nicolas Thienpont and Stephane Derenoncourt. Its 37-acre vineyard, planted in deep clay and limestone soils, is composed of 70 Merlot, 25 Cabernet Franc, and 5 Cabernet Sauvignon. Pavie-Macquin is not far from Gerard Perses little treasure, Pavie-Decesse. The 2003 Pavie-Macquin turned out brilliantly, no doubt because its soils supported the summers torrid heat and drought. Tipping the scales at 13.8 alcohol, it boasts an opaque purple color along with a gorgeous nose of blackberries, smoked meats, licorice, incense, and barbecue spices. Huge fruit on the attack is followed by a powerful, masculine wine with huge extract, high tannin, low acidity, and formidable power. Despite its low acidity, this is a wine to forget for 3-4 years, and drink over the following 20-25 years. When fully mature, this brilliant effort should rival the 2000 and 1998. 95 points.
