Minerality, smoke, licorice and sweet, black raspberries are at the front of the wine. The polished, soft fruit is complicated by licorice and spice notes in the finish.

Blackberry liqueur, mocha, stone, chocolate, floral, coffee and truffle scents create the perfume of this inky black/purple wine. Dense and concentrated, the wine is very tannic and leaves a strong mineral sensation along with a wealth of ripe fruit. This will require time to soften. Pavie Decesse was one of the last wines to finish harvesting in St. Emilion in 2011. 92-93 Pts

GJE CRD 2008 and EP 2011; 3/29/2012-4/4/2012 (Bordeaux, France): Crushed blueberries, nice freshness, big, highly concentrated, noticeable tannins but not obtrusive. Showing more freshness than the 10.
