Chateau Paveil de Luze Description
Dark garnet with a pretty purple nose. Aromas of very ripe red fruit. Fresh mouth, small vegetal notes. The wine is very elegant and marked by a cabernet-sauvignon class, the whole is refined and of great length. A very big Paveil de Luze.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Young but already elegant and complex, this wine is destined for long-term aging. Ripe blackberry fruits and serious tannins will take time to mature.
James Suckling: 91 Points
Fresh blueberry, blackberry, tea-leaf, cocoa and crushed-gravel aromas. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, silky tannins. Elegant and refined. Try from 2023.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
Fine-grained, with crushed plum and cassis notes carried by a graphite note before extra black tea, tobacco and warm earth accents fill in on the finish. Latent length too. Nicely done. Best from 2022 through 2032.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2018 Paveil de Luze has a clean, precise bouquet of black cherries, cassis and light violet aromas, very well defined with well-integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and linear, with a tobacco- and cedar-tinged entry and a fresh, marine-influenced finish. This is a finely crafted Margaux that should give a decade’s worth of drinking pleasure.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Paveil de Luze gives up fragrant mint chocolate, red roses and cedar chest scents over a core of baked black cherries, warm cassis and preserved plums. Full-bodied with plenty of juicy black fruit, it has a plush texture and plenty of freshness, finishing perfumed.
