Château Léoville Poyferré - Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré Saint-Julien 2019 (750ml) Nebbiolo Blend

Château Léoville Poyferré - Pavillon de Léoville Poyferré Saint-Julien 2019 (750ml) Nebbiolo BlendThe second wine of Chteau Loville Poyferr, the Pavillon benefits from the same care as its big brother, both in the vineyard and in the cellars. Bursting with fruit, this bright, attractive wine is accessible in its youth but will also cellar beautifully. Dominated by Cabernet and supported by Merlot, Petit Verdot & Cabernet Franc, the Pavillon is a purests representation of St Julien majestically pairing concentration with elegance and purity.

The drought in the early months of the year indicated that yields would be lower in 2020 than the bumper crops of 2018 and 2019

aged cheeses and nuts

this single-vineyard expression pops on the nose with fresh Bing cherry

delicious Cabernet
