  • Description

    The 2004 Pavie Macquin has a good intensity in the glass and equally deep, bold, soft-skinned, fully-ripe black cherry aromas on the nose. A very welcoming style with plush-textured, gently toasted black cherry and red fruit on the palate. The tannins are fairly soft at first then build in the mouth, while the colour belies a soft, careful extraction. A pure st-émilion with a good sense of luscious expressive fruit and a distinctive mineral quality.

    Situated on clay and limestone soils above the better known Pavie-Decesse, this 37.5-acre vineyard is planted with 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Farmed bio-dynamically, with low yields, this has been a perennial winner over the last 12-15 years, with the 1998 and 2000 standing out as monumental efforts.

    Château Pavie Macquin, located in the Saint-Émilion appellation of Bordeaux, France, is esteemed for its rich history and exceptional red wines. With a heritage dating back to the 19th century, the estate's vineyards span approximately 15 hectares, primarily planted with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Benefitting from limestone and clay-limestone soils, Château Pavie Macquin crafts wines that epitomize the elegance and complexity of Saint-Émilion terroir. Known for their depth, structure, and aging potential, the estate's wines exhibit ripe fruit flavors, velvety tannins, and a distinct Saint-Émilion character. Under the ownership of the Corre family, the estate continues to maintain its reputation for excellence. With a commitment to traditional winemaking practices and sustainable viticulture, Château Pavie Macquin remains a respected name in Bordeaux winemaking, captivating enthusiasts worldwide with its distinguished blends.

    A noble, complex nose of flowers, beef blood, black currants, licorice, and truffles reveals surprising evolution. The full-bodied, powerful wine exhibits stunning concentration, beautiful richness, sweet tannin, and a long finish. A blend of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon (all from a bio-dynamically farmed vineyard), the 2004 Pavie-Macquin is another dazzling success from the brilliant winemaking team of Stephane Derenoncourt and Nicolas Thienpont.
