Saturday, June 24, 2023 - When Bordeaux gets "delicious" I'm torn. Theres no denying that the Modern RB Bordeaux have become Napa'ish in their approach to winemaking and Pavie is a big part of that style, yet with enough acidity to set it apart and still give you that confusing flavor.

The 2010 Pavie is down right delicious, loaded with liquid blueberry, cedar, and hits of flowers from the blend. It is actually quite plush and soft from what you would expect from RB 2010 and to me, its actually ready to go.The balance at this stage is damn near spot on. As to when to drink this, Its really just a matter of preference to your benchmark for what a good wine is, vs. what a Bordeaux should be. Its a pleasure to sip this almost exotic Bordeaux potion. Drink or Hold
