柏菲瑪凱酒莊紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：65623

This well-situated estate, with a high percentage of old vines and uncompromising biodynamic viticultural practices, represents a wine that could be called the Chateau Lafleur of St.-Emilion. These are powerful, backward, tannic wines that should be purchased by those with the discipline, patience, and the requisite youthfulness to wait 10-12 years for them to round into shape. Because of their severity, these wines can be admired more than enjoyed, but their impressive old vine core of fruit, and extraordinary purity and ripeness are noteworthy. A dark ruby/purple color is followed by a kirsch, earthy, truffle-scented nose. This jammy, full-bodied, powerful, backward 1993 needs 7-10 years of cellaring. Atypically rich, brawny, and muscular for a 1993, this Pavie-Macquin possesses 20-25 years of cellaring potential. How many readers possess the discipline to wait years for old style, impressively-endowed wine to attain full maturity? Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020.

Pretty St.-Emilion. Medium in body, featuring lovely cassis, wild berry and black cherry notes. Lots of fruit here, but it could use a year or so for the tannins to smooth out. Better in 1998. -
