| - 2000 Château Pavie Decesse - France, Bordeaux, Libournais, St. Émilion Grand Cru (2/13/2007)
This may be the first premium 2000 Bordeaux (of my own) that I've opened. Fantastic. Inky dark. Thick, mouth coating big body with sweet plum, cassis, molasses, and charred oak with just a hint of tobacco. Finish that keeps pleasing for a long time. Depends on how you like your wines, but I'd say you can drink now or keep an eye on it for years. 93 points. (93 pts.)

| 2/25/2007 rated 91 points: After having 2001 Pavie, I was mentally prepared for the worst and was pleasantly surprised.
Not a big hairy monster at all. I haven't found Eric's "wow" and "Holy Toledo", despite this wine was a good pairing with muskrats.
I'd probably buy it again @ $110 but not a penny more. | |
