Description
Robert Parker: The 2005 Les Pavots (3,600 cases of 63% CabernetSauvignon, 23% Cabernet Franc, 12% Merlot, and the rest PetitVerdot) is a sensational wine, with a style that suggests ahypothetical blend of a great St.-Emilion and Pomerol. Chocolateycassis notes intermixed with incense, licorice, and a hint of blackolive are present in this wine. When it hits the palate, it comesacross as very Pomerol-like, with lushness, full body, andopulence. The tannins are sweet, the pH high, and the winegorgeously full, pure, dense, and long. It's a terrific example ofnon-interventionalist winemaking that has turned out a beautiful,silky-textured wine that should age effortlessly for 15+ years.Like so many 2005s, this wine has really put on weight since Itasted it last year.
