CHATEAU PAVIE, 2006

SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU

“A nose full of nostalgia, which reminds of childhood dashes between pine trees and rose gardens. On the palate, there is a beating heart of black fruits, a floral freshness and a light as a feather texture. A giant step again for this wine which reveals here all its soil finesse and complexity.” - Figaro Vin

History and anecdotes

In 1998, Gerard Perse acquired Château Pavie. Major investments began in the Château in order to give its reputation back. Michel Rolland acted as consulting oenologist and the architect Alberto Pinto redesigned the estate. In 2012, the excellence of Château Pavie became well-known thanks to its promotion and “A” classification as Premier Grand Cru in the Saint-Emilion appellation.

Since antiquity, the estate has been well-known for its fruit production, especially the Pavie peaches. The Château was named after them.
