Drinking it at Lola's in Cleveland — 11 years ago
Blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, second wine of Château Paveil de Luze, aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 25% new, deep Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits and cedar pepper spice. On the palate flavors of black fruits, currants and spicy notes. Lively acidity, fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, cacao and spicy oak. Drinking well now! — 6 months ago

More rare than common for me to try a Margaux for the first time these days.
Had this with a French prepared sirloin at Kronenhalle in Zurich.
It’s in a good drinking window. Nice fruit & style. Balanced ripe fruits and nicely resolved earth.
Kronenhalle is a good restaurant, old school environment with a huge stellar art collection, including three Picasso’s. — a month ago
