The 2022 Arômes de Pavie comes from parcels on the plateau on the east side of Pavie. Matured in 50% new oak, it has a rich and opulent bouquet with blueberry, cassis, orange pith and vanillary aromas. Perhaps it needs a little more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied, with light grip on the entry, balanced with a little chewiness. Layered black fruit lace with tar and tobacco, showing just a bit of firmness on the finish.
