Pavie-Decesse
Chateau Pavie-Decesse is situated above Chateau Pavie, with a stunning view of the Dordogne valley. This small St. Emilion estate was bought by Gerard Perse in 1997 and is part of his revolution. He slashed yields and revamped the cellars. The wine is richer, denser and more powerful. It benefits from at least seven years ageing.

Wine Advocate (94+)Planted in pure limestone above Gerard Perse’s other famous vineyard/terroir, Chateau Pavie, this 10-acre site’s vines average 47 years of age. Fashioned from remarkably low yields, this blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc is a powerful, dense, tannic wine that will require considerable time to round into shape. It exhibits a dense purple color along with sweet aromas of mulberries, black currants, minerals, cold steel, graphite, and background spice. Full-bodied, highly-extracted, dense, and made in an unfashionably tannic, broodingly backward style, this is a wine for the ages. It requires 8-10 years of cellaring, and should last for 25-30+. |
