A brooding and very somber nose only grudgingly gives up its aromas of lightly spiced plum, earth and black raspberry. The dense, serious and overtly powerful flavors possess outstanding concentration and even though the very firm tannins are borderline chewy there is so much extract that there is a velvety texture to the explosively long, balanced and harmonious finish. This is strikingly impressive and clearly built to age. Burghound 93 Sweet Spot Outstanding! By John Gilman View From the Cellar, (Savigny-lès-Beaune “la Dominodeâ€- Domaine Pavelot) The 2010 Pavelot Dominode is excellent and clearly the star of the cellar in this vintage. The deep and superb nose jumps from the glass in a blaze of cassis, black cherries, currant leaf, espresso, charred wood, black minerality, woodsmoke and a nice touch of new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very complex, with a fien core of fruit, a very soil-driven personality, ripe tannins, tangy acids and outstanding length and grip on the beautifully delineated finish. A lovely, lovely bottle in the making. (Drink between 2020-2060)  93-94 points
