Pavillon Rouge Vintage:2025 anise and clove plus discreet

anise and clove plus discreet mineral nuances that are set off by enough wood to warrant mentioning

Cabernet Sauvignon dominates this wine with 90%

concentrated and jam-packed with black fruit preserves and fantastic freshness to balance

It's ripe but without the perfect ripeness of a great vintage

Pavillon Rouge Vintage:2025 anise and clove plus discreetThe 2012 Pavillon Rouge is soft, supple and open knit, with plenty of dark red cherry, cherry pit, tobacco and brambly flavors. Initially a bit brooding, the 2012 becomes more finessed with time in the glass. Sweet floral and minty notes add freshness on the finish. The tannins are silky and polished throughout. Drink this supple, forward Pavillon Rouge over the next decade or so. Antonio Galloni
