Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep, concentrated ruby color with impressive density. The nose is layered and expressive, often revealing dark berries, plum, graphite, cedar, violet, and subtle earthy spice.

While already showing complexity, it will continue to gain nuance, softness, and tertiary aromas with extended aging.

Production
Pavie’s vineyards are planted on one of Saint-Émilion’s most distinctive terroirs, where limestone, clay, and gravel contribute to both power and elegance. The estate is known for meticulous vineyard work and careful parcel selection, with harvest decisions made to capture optimal ripeness and freshness. Vinification is carried out with precision to preserve concentration and structure, followed by aging in oak to integrate tannins and add complexity.
