Parker about Château Pavie Decesse 2000
Gerard Perse's 2000 Pavie Decesse, a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc from a vineyard situated above Pavie, on the steep limestone hillsides outside the walled town of St.-Emilion, is a fabulous effort (all the Perse wines are stunning in this vintage). Notes of camphor, creme de cassis, violets, black currants, cedar, and licorice jump from the glass of this inky/purple-hued offering. Monumental richness, sensational sweet tannin, a skyscraper-like mid-palate, and a 45+-second finish result in an extraordinary wine that is just reaching its plateau of full maturity. It should last for another 20-25 years.
Suckling over Château Pavie Decesse 2000
Very deep aromas of blackberries, dark chocolate, dried meat, smoke, and cedar follow through to a full body, yet it's very tight and refined on the palate with citrus and orange peel. Nice bitterness at the end. Power with finesse.
