Note di degustazione
One of the highlights of the 1990s, the 1997 Pavie-Macquin is peaking today. Soft, open-knit and generous, the 1997 offers a lovely interplay of aromas and textures. Crushed flowers, dried cherry, mint, sweet tobacco and cedar add aromatic nuance throughout. The 1997 has just enough mid-palate juiciness to drink well for a handful of years more. Rainstorms at the end of August caused owners to panic and pick right after, in early September. Derenoncourt and Thienpont decided to wait a full month before harvesting.

Exhibiting a saturated black/purple color, the 1997, produced from old vines and low yields, requires 4-5 years of cellaring (atypical of the vintage). It boasts superb flavors of cassis, blackberries, minerals, licorice, and new oak. Intense, powerful, and backward, this is a classic, long-lived Bordeaux made in an uncompromising fashion. A blockbuster effort. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2015+.
