Punteggi dei critici
99 Robert Parker
The 2018 Pavie is a blend of 60% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc and 18% Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine has a 3.58 pH and 14.48% alcohol. Very deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with a fabulously expressive nose of crème de cassis, baked plums and blueberry preserves, leading to an impressive array of nuances, featuring notions of dark chocolate, camphor, licorice, rose petals and fertile loam, plus hints of crushed rocks and iron ore. The rich, full-bodied palate offers layer upon layer of opulent black and blue fruits with loads of exotic spice sparks and pretty floral and mineral accents, supported by firm, super plush tannins and remarkable tension, finishing with epic length and depth. This could only be Pavie. It makes for a seductively stylish glass now, but patience will be rewarded if it is afforded 5-7 years in bottle, at least, then drink it over the next 30+ years.

Impressive aromas of pure, crushed blackberries and brambleberries with red and black licorice and black olives, as well as incense, following through to a full body with round, creamy tannins and lots of fruit. Yet, it’s tight and reserved at the finish. Needs three or four years to open and start showing its true character. Powerful and linear. Cellar-bound. Try after 2026.
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.
