18 Rene Gabriel
05: In der Nase eine wahre Brombeer- und Cassisdelikatesse, Schwarzteenoten, Teakholz, zeigt sich druckvoll und wahnsinnig gebündelt. Fester, etwas griffiger Gaumen, fordernde, aber süsse Tannine, viel Muskeln und Kraft in der Adstringenz, im Finale viel schwarze Kirschen. Grosser Wein, der beim Maximum gelandet ist, was möglich war. 06: Mittleres Granat mit bläulichem Schimmer. Wuchtiges, deutlich toastiges Bouquet, Cassis, Brombeerenblüten, schöne Konzentration zeigend. Enorm stoffig, dicht, bleibt hier blaubeerig und zeigt ein tolles Beerenparfüm im Innern, gut Anlagen und somit auch in sehr viel versprechendes Potential zeigend austrinken (2008 - 2015)

A noble, complex nose of flowers, beef blood, black currants, licorice, and truffles reveals surprising evolution. The full-bodied, powerful wine exhibits stunning concentration, beautiful richness, sweet tannin, and a long finish. A blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon (all from a bio-dynamically farmed vineyard), the 2004 Pavie-Macquin is another dazzling success from the brilliant winemaking team of Stephane Derenoncourt and Nicolas Thienpont.
90 Wine Spectator
Aromas of crushed blackberry and cherry follow through to a full body, with velvety tannins, a lovely core of ripe fruit and a long, caressing finish. Best after 2011. 4,165 cases made. JS
Producer
Château Pavie Macquin
Planted amongst three Premiers Grands Crus Classés, Château Pavie-Macquin consists of a single piece of land on the noteworthy limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion. The 15-hectare vineyard is planted to a large portion of Merlot, with smaller parts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. By 1994, the Right Bank visionary, Nicholas Thienpoint took control of the estate. Today, the winery produces quality-conscious wines that are elegant, tightly wound and structured, noted by their unique mineralistic characteristics. Famed oenologist, Stéphane Derenoncourt joined the team in 1990, and has worked as consulting vintner at the château ever since. Together, Nicholas and Stéphane developed a high-quality viticulture procedure which has elevated the château to the prestigious rank of Premier Grand Cru Classé wine. With minimal handling in the cellar, the Grand Vin, Pavie-Macquin is an opulent structured red with well-integrated notes of oak and spiced fruits.
