critic reviews

93-95/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown,The Wine Independent

Deep garnet-purple colored. After a swirl or two, notes of raspberry coulis, kirsch, and Chinese five spice sail out of the glass, giving way to fragrant hints of dried roses, sandalwood, and pipe tobacco. The light to medium-bodied palate delivers electric intensity with great tension and fine-grained tannins to balance, finishing long and perfumed. Very pretty!

92-94/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2024 Pavie Macquin has an impressive bouquet for the vintage, quite composed and delineated with brambly red fruit, <em>sous-bois</em> and light rose petal scents. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely chiselled compared to its peers, with pliant tannins and a fresh, saline finish. It does not have the persistence of other vintages that fire on all cylinders, but this is a success for 2024.

94/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

Up on the limestone plateau of St Emilion, the whole game in 2024 has been how to handle the austerity without rendering things too tight. Here they have got the balance right - delicate, sappy, drawn out, vivid blackberry and cassis fruits with hidden density, nothing overt but plenty of power and grip. 3.3ph, harvest 3 to 8 October. 42 hl/ha, touch of saignée. Harvesting entirely in October, from 3 to 8, Stéphane Derenoncourt consultant with Nicolas Thienpont.

88-90/100William Kelley,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2024 Pavie Macquin offers up attractive aromas of raspberries, violets, rose petals and spices, framed by a discreet 45% new oak. Medium to full-bodied, ample and pure, it's built around a tangy, somewhat assertive spine of acidity that lends this wine an angular, edgy profile. Of course, that may integrate with additional elevage.
