'Top 100 Wine of 2004' (#5) and 97 points Wine Spectator: "Still my favorite of the lineup. Offers wonderful aromas of fruit purity, with red and black plum and cherry notes that show touches of mocha, chocolate, espresso and black olive. Ends with great persistence and focus, the flavors sailing on. --Non-blind Les Pavots vertical (March 2011)"
97 points Robert Parker: "A spectacular Knight’s Valley proprietary red wine from Peter Michael, the 2001 Les Pavots performed brilliantly in the horizontal tasting I did in Napa Valley in late May. Its dense opaque blue/purple color is accompanied by notes of graphite, charcoal, burning embers, creme de cassis, licorice and chocolate fudge. Opulent and full-bodied with sweet tannin as well as low acidity, it is just beginning to strut its stuff and reveal secondary nuances. Approachable now, this full-bodied, multi-dimensional wine should continue to drink well for another two decades plus. (Jun 2011)"
