  Light body, intense, pure, surprisingly long.
  
  Ready to drink.

  Very Good++ and I may be underrating as I think this needs more time. I haven't been in the mood to take decent notes recently, but I'll say on PnP this wasn't showing much, quite tight, muted nose. Still, drank 1 1/2 glasses over some time, capped, and opened the following night and it was much more expressive, pretty nose and gaining depth. I really like it.
  
  So for now, decant! I want to wait until ~2025 before opening the next one.

  What a pleasant surprise. My first encounter with this producer, but definetly not my last. A beautiful red Burgundy at an affordable price. A little mute right from opening, but after an hour of air this was really singing. Medium intensity with aromas of red cherries, raspberries, cranberries, earthy, some spiced wood and a little hint of vanilla. Fine grained medium tannins, nice acidity, and a long beautiful finish of red berries and a hint of wood. Really good balance, but lacking some concentration to really compete in the Big League. Nevertheless a great effort, and I will make sure to try out more wines from Pavelot in the near future. Drink now and for the nex 5-6 years.
