Le Pavillon 2021

M. Chapoutier

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 96.0

The renowned producer has impressively, over a quarter of a century, amassed the greatest number of 100/100 Parker points in the world, and there can hardly be more perfect site-specific expression of the noble Syrah grape than these two crus in Chapoutier’s Sélections Parcellaires. Just 600 cases are produced from only four hectares on the hill of Hermitage. The miniscule Le Pavillon plot comprising a subsection of the granitic ‘Les Bessards’ vineyard which is planted to 65 year-old Syrah vines. The wine is aged for 18-20 months in 50% new French oak.

Granite with petrichor aromas. From 4 ha of Les Bessards and 65-year-old vines. Yield 25–30 hl/ha. Cask sample. Much deeper crimson than Les Greffieux. Really quite intense. Haunting aromas and gorgeously layered with concentrated, velvety fruit within a fine corset. Really lovely wine with great ripeness and smokiness. Firm and Hermitage-like but with great expression and appeal already. Dangerously drinkable!

Very classically Pavillon in its aromatic display, with hoisin sauce and some cassis and blackberry. Fine tannins, but this is not a huge vintage, a more Burgundian expression of Le Pavillon. Not terribly concentrated like some recent vintages, this will drink well young. Fresh, with strong acidity and an underlying smoky note. A lovely wine, but an atypically fine and compact Pavillon. From lieu-dit Les Bessards.
