A full-bodied wine featuring layers of opulent black fruits, exotic spices, and plush tannins. Remarkable tension and an epic finish.
Winemaker and Vineyard: Château Pavie is a 37-hectare vineyard property situated on an exceptional terroir with an equally exceptional southern exposure. The estate can be subdivided into three easily identifiable terroirs: the limestone plateau, the slope, and the foot of the slope, all located at different altitudes above the Dordogne River. The conditions are extremely favorable for viticulture, notably due to the natural poverty of the soils, excellent sunshine, and natural drainage.
Tasting: The 2018 Pavie is a blend of 60% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, and 18% Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine has a 3.58 pH and 14.48% alcohol. Very deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with a fabulously expressive nose of crème de cassis, baked plums, and blueberry preserves, leading to an impressive array of nuances, featuring notions of dark chocolate, camphor, licorice, rose petals, and fertile loam, plus hints of crushed rocks and iron ore. The rich, full-bodied palate offers layer upon layer of opulent black and blue fruits with loads of exotic spice sparks and pretty floral and mineral accents, supported by firm, super plush tannins and remarkable tension, finishing with epic length and depth.
Service: Serve at room temperature to accompany a venison stew.
