Vinous
byAntonio Gallonithe4/27/2016
The 2015 Arômes de Pavie, the second wine of Pavie, is fleshy, open-knit and seductive, but it also has plenty of tannic clout to back things up. Large, ample and quite deep, the Arômes shows plenty of vintage 2015 personality. Sweet tobacco, leather, licorice and herbs add the closing shades of nuance. The 2015 has maintained good freshness and energy to balance the richness of the year. The blend is 66% Merlot, 21% Cabernet Franc and 13% Cabernet Sauvignon.
