There was no frost in the vineyard in 2017, due to its situation high upon the limestone plateau. Composed of 60% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc and 18% Cabernet Sauvignon, which was harvested from September 25 to October 3, the 2017 Pavie is very deep garnet-purple in color and rolls slowly and sensuously out of the glass with growing scents of Black Forest cake, black plum preserves, blueberry compote and fruitcake plus suggestions of melted chocolate, licorice, crushed rocks and Indian spices with a waft of violets. Full-bodied, the palate packs a powerful punch, laden with electric layers of energetic black and blue fruits. All this decadent fruit is supported by fantastic freshness and very, very ripe, velvety tannins, finishing with epic length. Location, location, location was everything in 2017. Pavie has one of the most enviable locations in all of Bordeaux and boy-oh-boy does it show in this spectacular wine<br/>

Profound, crushed blueberry and blackberry aromas here. Mint and chalk undertones. Full-bodied with a center palate of balanced and ripe fruit with polished and caressing tannins. Excellent finish that goes on for minutes. All in finesse and length. A wine to contemplate and enjoy. Better after 2024

Dark and admirably ripe, with layers of fig and blackberry compote liberally infused with tobacco, licorice snap and fruitcake flavors. Shows some heft through the finish, but there’s enough energy to keep this moving along. A long, subtle echo of chalk is alluring.—J.M
Produttore
Château Pavie
Il nome Pavie deriva dalla coltivazione di pesche che occupava questa zona di Saint-Émilion prima del IV secolo. Oggi Château Pavie porta questa eredità nel nome ed è il più vasto Premier Grand Cru Classé in tutta la denominazione. Con 37 ettari continui di viti e molto sole, questo straordinario lotto affacciato a sud può essere ricompreso in tre terroir specifici. La tenuta, recentemente riprogettata da Alberto Pinto, ha una grande façade in vetro che offre una vista mozzafiato sulle colline del vigneto. C'è chi dice che sia addirittura "l'angolo più bello di Saint-Émilion". Acquistato da Gérard Perse nel 1998, proprietario degli Châteaux Pavie-Decesse e Monbousquet, Pavie è oggi uno dei più grandi produttori innovativi. Pavie e gli altri vini di Perse sono rossi da vendemmia tardiva e molto concentrati, bilanciati dalla dicotomia tra opulenza e delicatezza. Promosso allo status di Premier Grand Cru Classé A nel 2012, il Grand Vin Pavie è un vino Perse esemplare, vinificato con un approccio moderno. Il risultato è ricco, concentrato e di grande qualità.
