This is good though I thought it definitely showed the heat of the vintage; the nose was initially quite ripe, almost liqueur like though it did gain some minerality and freshness with air; the palate was big with a borderline warm finish and while it stopped short of having any prune or significant heat on the finish it was not my favorite Pavelot. That said I think with age this could turn out quite nice. I'd give this a decade really from here and see if the warm fruit gains complexity and everything balances out.

A decent Savigny. Very light body and spirit, cherries, some flowers and balanced juicy acidity. Drinks easy and pleasantly. If that is worth $50 or more is a different story. Maybe marginally. Ready to drink can wait a bit longer.

Perfectly nice, floral nose, light palate, can taste some heat on the end.

Ung, floral og fruktdrevet vin. Overraskende rustikk og mørk. Mørke bær, lakris, snev av marsipan og grønne urter.

Very nice. Doesn't seem worth the relatively small premium to their other vineyards, though.
