2018 Les Chênes de Macquin

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Pavie Macquin is a bit closed at first. It slowly reveals subtle aromas of dark chocolate, candied violets and rosehip tea over a core of plum jam, blueberry compote and cherry coulis, as well as hints of wood smoke and crushed stones. The palate is full-bodied with an impressive structure of ripe, firm, velvety tannins and a bold freshness that carries all that rich black fruit. It finishes very long and mineral.
