Complex and full-bodied, with hints of new oak and wonderfully polished tannins that caress the palate. Long, long finish. This is not the blockbuster it was from barrel, but rather a complete, balanced and gorgeous red. Best after 2015. 7,100 cases made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e:  \u003cspan\u003eGérard Perse believes this is the greatest Pavie he’s made to date, although certainly I would argue that list includes the 2000, as well as the 2009 and 2010, among his superstars. This wine, which I had both in the 2005 horizontal report in the Wine Advocate, and at a mini-vertical with Perse at the restaurant Maison Boulud in Montreal, looks to be a 75- to 100-year wine. Dense, opaque purple to the rim, with a gorgeously promising nose of blackberries, cassis, graphite and cedar wood just beginning to emerge, it tastes more like a three-year-old than wine that is already a decade old. This beauty is intense and full-bodied, with magnificent concentration, a majestic mouthfeel and a total seamless integration of tannin, wood, alcohol, etc. Beautifully rich, full and multidimensional, this is a tour de force in winemaking and certainly one of the top dozen or so 2005 Bordeaux. Forget it for another 3-5 years and drink it over the following 50-100 years!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100 Points - \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJeb Dunnuck\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e:  \u003c\/span\u003eEven more flamboyant and sexy than the 2000, the 2005 Pavie has everything you could ever want from a wine. Deep, inky purple-colored, an awesome perfume of cassis, blackberries, toasty oak, graphite, and incredible minerality, full body, sweet tannin, and a blockbuster finish all make for an extraordinary Saint-Emilion. It’s still a baby but offers incredible pleasure today. It’s going to last for another 3-4 decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e:  \u003cspan\u003eThis is monumental. Just a baby with a fresh and intense mouthfeel and density. Full-bodied, velvety and layered. Decadent and rich. A folly of a wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sally Muir","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67883991761217,"sku":"01-25620","price":995.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/1688\/1467\/files\/1044444h.jpg?v=1792011376","url":"https:\/\/vintagewinessd.com\/products\/2005-ch-pavie-saint-emilion-magnum","provider":"Vintage Wines San Diego","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
