Description

France / Bordeaux / Saint Émilion

In 1997, Gérard Perse acquired Château Pavie Decesse, and a year later, he also purchased Château Pavie. Although Pavie and Pavie Decesse form a continuous vineyard, they are still very individual, each with its own clearly defined terroir. The 3.5-hectare vineyard of Pavie Decesse is located entirely on a steep slope of the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion. This is where rich, full-bodied wines with distinctive character are produced. The Grand Cru Pavie Decesse is very complex, with good tannin structure and excellent aging potential, making it a typical representative of the best wines from the Saint-Émilion plateau.

Château Pavie

Château Pavie

Before the first vines were planted on the ‘Pavie hill’ in Saint-Émilion, Pavie peaches grew there, giving the vineyard its name.

The origins of Château Pavie reach back to antiquity, when the Romans planted the first vineyards in this region.

The estate itself experienced a period of prosperity in the 19th century, when it gained recognition under the leadership of Ferdinand Bouffard. Bouffard recognised the immense potential of the terroir and introduced modern viticultural practices to steadily improve the quality of the wines.

In 1998, entrepreneur Gérard Perse acquired the château and invested heavily in modernising the estate and cellar facilities, further enhancing the quality of the wines.

A quarter of the parcels were replanted, the winery was modernised and additional parcels were acquired. 70% of the vineyard is farmed using sustainable methods. In 2012, the estate was rewarded for its quality drive and classified as ‘Premier Grand Cru Classé A’.
