90-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Ripe but nicely cool aromas of essence of poached plum, cassis and earth exhibit a mentholated top note. The concentrated middle weight flavors are rich to the point of opulence while also retaining good delineation on the sappy and very firm finale that flashes impressive power. This isn't as elegant as it usually is, but it is certainly more imposing. Drink: 2032+. (Apr 2022)"
90 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2020 les Lavières from Monsieur Pavelot is another broad-shouldered example of the vintage, with just a hint of backend sur maturité intruding on the finish. The bouquet is deep and black fruity, delivering a mix of black cherries, cassis, pigeon, dark chocolate, a fine base of soil tones and a nice touch of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is plush on the attack, full-bodied and sappy at the core, with buried, seamless tannins, good focus and grip and just a hint of too much ripeness showing on the long finish. 2030-2075. (Nov/Dec 2021)"
