Chateau Pavie, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France 2010 Bardolino The mousse is crisp andDeep garnet in color, the 2010 Pavie delivers tantalizing suggestions of candied violets, star anise and tapenade over a core of prunes, blueberry compote, Morello cherries and fruitcake with touches of underbrush and bouquet garni. Full bodied, rich and exotically opulent, the palate has a rock solid texture of velvety tannins and bold freshness supporting the generous palate of black and blue berry preserves, finishing long and fragrant. 100 Pts
