Château Pavie
Château Pavie, the largest St.Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé (Class B), is located on an old peach orchard, known as pavies. Vines have been cultivated at Pavie since the 4th century, making it one of the two oldest estates in St. Emilion. The château produces about 15,000 cases per year made from Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The vines have an average age of 45 years and grow on various soils types such as clay, limestone and sand. Château La Gaffelière and Château Pavie-Decesse border Pavie's vineyards. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in bottle and then ages in new oak barrels. The wine's style is elegant with good depth of fruit on the palate. In recent years, Pavie has become richer and more concentrated. Château Pavie also produces a Bordeaux AC rosé called La Rosée de Pavie.
