Description
A Saint-Emilion wine with an alluringly delicate and aromatic expression
The estate
The origins of this property date back many years. The vines were cultivated on the slopes of what is now Château Pavie as early as the 4th century. Owned by Chantal and Gérard Perse since March 1998, Château Pavie, 1er Grand Cru Classé "A", has one of the most beautiful terroirs of Saint-Émilion. Château Pavie is renowned for the structure and elegance of its wines.
Arômes de Pavie became the name of Château de Pavie’s Second Wine in 2005, following that of Château Tour Simard.
The vineyard
Arômes de Pavie 2021 is a Saint-Emilion wine made from vines that are mostly less than 10 years old and from plots that do not fit into the estate’s First Wine. With an average age of 52 years, the 13.5-hectare vineyard is located on the southeast side of the Saint-Emilion hill, on a "plateau" of clay-limestone soil over asteroid limestone. Particular attention is paid to the vineyard, such as pruning adjusted to the age of each vine, green harvest and leaf-stripping.
Vinification and ageing
Grape harvest from October 7th to 9th. Vinification in temperature-controlled wooden vats. Malolactic fermentation in barrels, as well as ageing in 50% new barrels and 50% second-fill barrels.
The blend
Arômes de Pavie 2021 comprises a bend of Merlot (50%) and Cabernet Franc (50%).
