Already showing some bricking at the rim, this St.-Emilion from the owner of Château Pavie is altogether different from that storied wine. Starts with scents of raisins, smoke and leather, and continues in that vein on the palate, where the flavors run toward dried fruit and vanilla. Supple, soft tannins on the finish suggest early drinkability.

Really delicious St. Emilion Bordeaux. Lean, elegant, with robust "staying power." A go-to for my personal consumption

Still a little too young. Recommend cellaring for 2-4 more years.

A bit too fruity for my taste, but liked the earthiness. Almost too heavy.

This is a great wine. A little gamey but very pleasant. I actually found that accompanied by poulty, a lot of cherry and jammy flavors came out. Without food, though, it comes across as a big, strong man's wine. I gave it 3 stars. --------- 4 months later: 6/30/07, I tried the Tour Simard and loved it! gets lots of complexity from it's 3 soil types: gravel, clay and soil. Really, really soft and yummy thanks to the merlot. Great with soft, salty, stiny cheese!

This wine had a nice backbone to it and a very smooth finish. It took me awhile to get a real handle on the flavors at work here, but there was a really nice earthiness to this one. A bit drier than I had expected, but overall an excellent wine.

Nutmeg & cloves on nose evolve into black cherry undertones, cigar flavors on mid-palate. Tannins are still firm- would stand to cellar another 3-5 years. A lovely wine!
