Blackberry, black plum and cassis lead the profile, followed by violet, tobacco, truffle, cedar and subtle earthy notes. The palate is full and concentrated, with ripe dark fruit, polished tannins and a long, savory finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAging in French oak adds spice and depth, while the excellent 2016 vintage gives the wine enough freshness and structure to remain balanced despite its generous style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat I like about the 2016 Arômes de Pavie is that it offers much of the depth and personality associated with Château Pavie in a wine that is already showing beautifully. The tannins have softened with bottle age, while the dark fruit, tobacco and earthy complexity are beginning to integrate into a more mature and layered expression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Pair with beef tenderloin, braised short ribs, lamb chops, duck, mushroom dishes, truffle preparations, or aged hard cheeses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eServe around 60–64°F.
