Chateau Pavie Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2012

The Chateau Pavie Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2012 is a prestigious red wine from the Right Bank of Bordeaux, marking the first vintage after the estate was promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classe A. This vintage displays a deep purple hue and offers a complex bouquet of blackberries, cassis, and crushed rocks, intertwined with notes of toasted oak and licorice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, featuring velvety tannins and a concentrated core of dark fruit balanced by a signature mineral freshness. Known for its remarkable depth and aging potential, this Merlot-dominant blend provides a long, opulent finish that exemplifies the modern and rigorous winemaking style of the Pavie estate.
