2009 Château Pavie Macquin

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

87 Points

Sunday, July 2, 2017 - Blend of Merlot 84%, Cabernet Franc 14%, Cabernet Sauvignon 2%. 14.5%. Medium plus bodied. It's already 'going.' No fresh fruit, no oak, no spices, just some oxidized grape juice with cooked dried jujube note. Short finish. The wine has been kept in cellar over a year since it was imported from France. Definitely not flawed but very disappointing. (Unexpectedly it gets just a little better on day 3, when it's 87+/100)
