Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé (A), Bordeaux, France
Château Pavie 2015 is a superb expression of this renowned estate, combining richness, precision, and elegance in a beautifully balanced vintage.
Sourced from Pavie’s limestone plateau and clay-rich slopes, this wine is crafted predominantly from Merlot, supported by Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2015 vintage delivered excellent ripeness and concentration, while retaining freshness and structure.
Aged in a high proportion of new French oak, the wine develops depth, complexity, and finely polished tannins, reflecting the estate’s meticulous winemaking philosophy.
The nose is expressive and layered, with aromas of ripe blackberries, plum, and black cherry, complemented by notes of violet, graphite, cedar, and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and refined, with a rich core of dark fruit, silky yet structured tannins, and a harmonious balance between power and elegance. Hints of cocoa, licorice, and mineral undertones add depth.
The finish is long and persistent, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and refined oak.
