M Chapoutier Ermitage Le Pavillon 10 ans 2001/2011 (2x0.75L)

2001: "Showing a very gamey character on the nose along with some leaf mulch and cigar tobacco. It's still very full and richly fruited on the palate, with furry tannins which are perhaps just a little dry - not the most elegant tannic texture. There's a saline, searching finish of good length." - Decanter 97pts

2011: "Spectacularly perfumed, with raspberry, blackberry, licorice, toasted spices and assorted floral nuances, this full-bodied effort has massive depth and richness, no hard edges and masses of finely polished tannin that emerge on and frame the finish." - Wine Advocate 100pts
