CHATEAU PAVIE MACQUIN, 2005

SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU

« Inky bluish/purple in color, Pavie Macquin produced a prodigious effort from St.-Emilion in 2005. Its crushed, chalky rock minerality, massive body, and high tannin make for a wine to forget for another decade. Super-loaded, concentrated and powerful, this wine should turn out great, but patience will be required. The blackberry and cassis fruit are there in abundance, but so is a massive structure. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035. » - Robert Parker

Histoire et anecdotes

Founded by Albert Macquin in the 19th century, Château Pavie Macquin is a Premier Grand Cru Classé in Saint-Émilion. It consists of several plots belonging to illustrious châteaux purchased by the founder in the 19th century: Château La Serre, Peygenestou (5 ha), Pavie-Chapus (3.7 ha), Pavie-Pigasse (5.7 ha). The current owners of Château Pavie Macquin are none other than the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the founder, the Corre and Charpentier families.

In 1994, Nicolas Thienpoint was called to manage the Château. His team includes the illustrious Stéphane Derenoncourt, who has been present since 1990. This duo refines and develops the wine through cutting-edge viticulture. Their work was rewarded in 2006 when the Château was ranked as Premier Grand Cru Classé. This rank was confirmed in 2012 and again in 2022.

The Château's reception room is modern and offers a breathtaking view of Saint-Émilion to enhance your tasting experience.
