Product Notes

Château Pavie 1er Grand Cru Classé St Emilion wine is an epitome of opulence, hailing from Bordeaux's right bank, France. This red wine is a melange of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon, imparting a diverse, robust profile. It's renowned for its deep ruby colour, lush fruitiness, gentle spice notes and an impressive longevity. With an elegant balance of acidity and tannins, it offers a sophisticated, velvety palate experience. Its multiple layers of depth make it an ideal accompaniment for rich dishes. Château Pavie's wines represent the exquisite heritage of St Emilion, with each vintage more magnificent than the last.

Tasting Notes

The color is concentrated, intense. Aromas of fresh black currant, sweet and ripe, bring great intensity to the wine's fruity youthfulness. Careful barrel aging shows well. This 2010 vintage is fresh and powerful on the palate, with an evolution focusing on tight and firm tannins. The mid-palate is very fleshy, finishing on a slightly dry note produced by the wine's youth and the harvest's maturity. This wine has great power with very good aromatic length. Grapes harvested at full ripeness give fruity retro-olfactive aromas which fully express the potential of Pavie's terroir. Wait at least another five to 10 years, and this wine will make a memorable meal all the more special.
