Esprit de Pavie 2017 is a full-bodied red wine produced by Château Pavie in the St Emilion appellation of Bordeaux. Esprit de Pavie is the third wine of the prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé (A) St-Émilion property. The wine is composed of 65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon from vineyards of the Pavie estate as well as Castillon-Côtes de Bordeaux on the extension of the Saint-Émilion hill. Soils are of sandy clay and clay-limestone . Esprit de Pavie is matured in second-use barrels of Château Pavie and Château Monbusquet for 15 months. "This is a savoury and fresh red with berries, tile and dried spice, such as nutmeg. Pine needles, too. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a crisp finish. A blend of wines from Monbousquet, Pavie and Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux. Drinking nicely now." James Suckling

Chateau Pavie

Chateau Pavie

Situated to the south-east of the town of St-Emilion, Pavis is the largest 1er Grand Cru Classé property in the commune with over 35 hectares of vines. The vineyards themselves are ideally situated on the south facing slopes of a limestone plateau for excellent exposure, ensuring optimal ripeness in the right conditions. Since the late 1990s, the Grand Vin has been a blend of 55% Merlot, 25% Cabernet France and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, fermented in wooden vats and aged in 100% new oak for 18 months. The wines are bottled unfiltered for added concentration and texture.

Pavie was purchased in 1998 by Gérard Perse who has, assisted by consultant oenologist Michel Rolland, pushed the wines towards a bolder, more concentrated style with a focus on concentrated fruit on the palate and an expressive nose.
