Château Pavie 2018

The refinement of a great Saint-Émilion wine combining finesse and balance

The estate
Like a millennial guardian of the earth’s secrets, the Château Pavie reveals a winemaking history dating back to the far reaches of the 4th century. Since March 1998, under the passionate leadership of Chantal and Gérard Perse, this prestigious estate, crowned Grand Cru Classé « A », embodies Bordeaux excellence in all its splendor.

The vineyard
Its vineyard, like a magnificent tableau sculpted on the slopes of the saint-émilionnaise hill, stretches majestically over thirty-seven contiguous hectares. Like a geological symphony, the terroir unfolds in three movements: a lofty plateau at 85 meters, a middle slope and a foothill with soils blended of sand and clay, where each parcel whispers the mysteries of its lands.

The vines, venerable witnesses of time, accumulate nearly fifty years of wisdom. Pampered with almost paternal tenderness, they undergo meticulous care: trellis height adjustment, surgical pruning, precise trimming, like a sculptor chiseling his masterpiece.

Blend
This Château Pavie 2018 is a blend of merlot, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon.
