1997 Chateau Pavie Saint Emilion, France WB Rating: 79 Alcohol by volume: 12.0% Price at time of purchase: $26.00 (K&L) Type: Cabernet / Bordeaux Principal varietal(s): Bordeaux blend Very disappointing wine. Perhaps in an awkward stage, but this wine, while having some light-weight vestige of the usual attractive Bordeaux cassis and cedar character, was weak, watery, and hollow, with bitter tannins. I guess you pay for the name to some extent, but this wine struck us as insanely overpriced at $26. - WB Team 2002-04-12 [Back] |
