CHARACTERISTICS
  • TypeVino rosso fermo
  • Location Bordeaux
  • Grapes merlot 79%, cabernet franc 19%, cabernet sauvignon 2%
  • Sensations A perfect expression of the Saint-Emilion terroir, this 2021 vintage seduces with its complexity, delicacy and balance.
  • Vinification Harvested by hand. The whole berries are vinified by gravity, then vinified by parcel in concrete vats. The estate has opted for methods that respect the environment, even if they are not certified: from the ban on herbicides to the use of natural fertilisers (herbal teas, decoctions, infusions, compost), via controlled yields. Some more modern techniques allow the wine's aromatic expression to be intensified, such as micro-oxygenation, which allows small quantities of oxygen to be introduced during the main stages of vinification. Maturation on fine lees for 16-20 months in barrels (50% of which are new) with a first racking after 6-10 months of ageing and a second before bottling.
  • Alcoholic strength 14% vol
  • Allergens Contains sulphites

    Château Pavie Macquin Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé
  • Château Pavie Macquin is a great Bordeaux red, and specifically a great Saint-Émilion wine. This label represents a perfect synthesis of terroir, grape varieties and production wisdom. But let us proceed in order. Saint-Émilion is a region with a wine-growing history going back thousands of years. Here, the landscape is characterised by gentle hills and a unique soil that contributes greatly to the structure and complexity of the wines produced here. Château Pavie Macquin, in particular, is a blend of 79% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. The manual harvest, carried out with particular care, allows only the best grapes to be selected. Vinification takes place by gravity, a delicate process that preserves the integrity of the grapes, and each parcel is vinified separately in cement tanks, to maintain the purity of the territorial expressions. Ageing takes place on fine lees for a period of 16-20 months in oak barrels, 50% of which are new, giving the wine aromatic complexity and refined structure. The use of techniques such as micro-oxygenation, which introduces small quantities of oxygen during vinification, enhances the aromatic expression of the wine, giving it depth and longevity. One thus discovers a wine of rare elegance, characterised by an intense, almost impenetrable ruby red colour. On the nose, it opens with notes of ripe black fruit, plums and blackberries, accompanied by hints of sweet spices, tobacco and a hint of liquorice. The palate is powerful but balanced, with silky, well-integrated tannins. The freshness of the Cabernet Franc balances the richness of the Merlot, giving a long, enveloping finish. This wine is designed to evolve over time. Good already today, Château Pavie Macquin will reach its full expression in at least 10 years. It is an ideal companion for fine red meats, such as a fillet of beef or a grilled rib-eye steak, and is exalted with game, such as a roast leg of venison or a roast pheasant.

    Today we are in the heart of Saint-Émilion. Here stands Château Pavie Macquin, founded in the 19th century by Albert Macquin, a pioneering figure who left his mark on the history of wine. Albert Macquin, in fact, is famous for saving French vineyards from the phylloxera catastrophe. It was his intuition to graft European vines onto resistant American roots. A practice that is still widely used today and that not only saved French vineyards, but literally transformed the world of oenology. Today, his descendants carry on this legacy with the same passion and dedication, keeping Château Pavie Macquin among the finest in the world. The castle is located in a privileged position, on one of the highest hills of Saint-Émilion, an area that has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The vines cultivated are those typical of Saint-Émilion, with a predominance of Merlot, which accounts for around 70% of production.
