TASTING NOTES:
This 2016 displays a purple color that continues to express its full force and liveliness. The complex aromas of sun-ripened black fruit are lush and clean, with ripe notes of fresh blackberry jam instrumental in defining the wine's brisk style. The aromatic generosity and density is a model of mastered concentration. There's a fine balance in its expression of ripe fruit and the subtle oak which contributes smoky notes across the aromatic palette. The wine is a union of richness and freshness.

BRAND NAME:
Château Pavie
Château Pavie is a winery in Saint-Émilion in the Bordeaux region of France. It lies on the plateau to the southeast of St. Emilion village. In 2012 it was classified in the first rank of the Classification of Saint-Émilion wine, as a Premier Grand Cru Classé (A), after having previously been a Premier Grand Cru Classé (B) since 1954. Like other vineyards in Saint-Émilion such as Château Ausone, the Pavie vineyard dates back to Roman times. It takes its name from the orchards of peaches ("pavies") that used to stand there.
