ESPRIT DE PAVIE BORDEAUX 2018

Wine Advocate: 89 points - Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Esprit de Pavie comes bounding out of the glass with youthful, exuberant black cherries, warm blackberries and stewed plums notes with touches of menthol, dark chocolate and candied violets. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with juicy black berries and savory layers, framed by rounded tannins and a lively backbone, finishing with a minty kick. Lisa Perrotti-Brown
