Description

An exceptional grand vin from Château Pavie

The estate
The estate’s origins are very ancient. Vines have been cultivated on the slopes of what is now the Château Pavie since the 4th century. Owned by Chantal and Gérard Perse since March 1998, Château Pavie, Premier Grand Cru Classé ‘A’, possesses one of the most beautiful terroirs in Saint-Émilion. Château Pavie is renowned for the structure and elegance of its wines, resulting from a harvest limited to yields most appropriate to the terroir: 29 hl/ha.

The vineyard
Château Pavie’s vineyard consists of a single block of 37 hectares, making it one of the largest Premier Grand Cru Classé estates in Saint-Émilion.

Located on the southeast of the Saint-Émilion hill, the vineyard extends across three levels up the slope, with vines averaging 48 years old. The ‘plateau’ (85 meters above sea level) is composed of clay-limestone soil, and the ‘mid slope’ (55 meters above sea level) of fine-textured brown clay-limestone soil. The ‘foot of the slope’ comprises sandy/sandy-clay soils with an iron pan between 60 and 80 cm and sand-gravel soils.

Particular attention is paid to the vineyard, part of which has been replanted under a plan that includes raising the trellises to increase leaf surface area, specific pruning according to vine age, fruit thinning, and leaf stripping.



Vinification and aging
Hand-harvested and then sorted, the harvest is received in 21 temperature-controlled wooden vats. After a 38-day maceration, malolactic fermentation takes place in barrels, as does the aging. The distribution is 80% new barrels and 20% once-used barrels.

Blend
This Château Pavie 2019 is a blend of merlot (50%), cabernet franc (32%), and cabernet sauvignon (18%).
