I had this at a Bordeaux and pizza event and this was my favorite of the younger wines and probably one of the best matches with a casual pizza dinner. Very fresh and fruity, great structure and long finish. Will get much better with a few more years and in this case would have benefited from some more air time, but this was surprisingly drinkable now. Thanks for bringing this one Winedog1!

Well balanced. Very smooth. Fresh. Fruity. Approachable. Drinkable. Not tannic. Limited notes due to tasting environment. Approximately 20 other Bordeaux wines roughly the same price opened. This was fourth to sixth in the ranking, with a 2005 Monbousquet winning the crown easily. I am now eyeing the 2019 Monbousquet as a result. Originally a 94, but revised downward to a 93.

highly perfumed nose with spice at the forefront , the palate is long and fresh but not fruity, quite dry and a little watery definitely lacking in fruit but the nose is gorgeous with dark fruit and spice wafting from the glass - my first ever taste of a pavie Maquin , I’m interested to see how other vintages compare

Really nice with some tobacco and mushroom notes and nice long finish.
