1.5 hour splash decant. Mushroom risotto for dinner. (1st time making it, nailed it). Very nice pairing. Blue/black fruits with pronounced floral/perfume notes at the end (violets maybe). Nicely integrated. This drinks nicely now but will last for quite a few more years.

2 hour splash decant. Moving to a nice place. medium bodied, soft-ish tannins, blue/black fruits. Went well with a charcuterie plate. Will hold for further for more development.

Similar impressions as the last bottle two years ago. Not sure if it is the warmer vintage, or the vineyard, but I am really enjoying this wine. I should really save my last bottle for some years and move on to my other Pavelot bottles.

Believe it or not....this still needs two more years. I am drinking it now. Tons of fruit but still too much tannin on the finish.
Pavelot wines are for the long haul......which I might not make.
I find California universally awful. If I want hard liquor I will order a scotch. They are simply awful.....just had to say it.

Solid. Sadly I only have one more bottle. This was everything you want in a Cotes de Beaune 1er Cru. Really beautiful, and the price was a steal.
