Château Pavie Decesse Saint Emilion gcc. 2021 0,75l

Château Pavie Decesse is a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru from a very small vineyard on the limestone plateau above Pavie. Vines rooted in red and brown clay over hard limestone, planted mostly with Merlot and some Cabernet Franc, give a wine of depth and tension. The nose offers dark fruits, plum and black cherry alongside spice, licorice, earthy nuances and fine oak. On the palate it is full-bodied and structured, with ripe, grippy tannins and fresh acidity that carry a long, mineral finish. It is a striking partner for beef, lamb, hearty stews and aromatic dishes with mushrooms or truffle. With some time in the glass it becomes increasingly complex and expressive.

Ageing in predominantly new French oak gives the wine depth and a distinctive, mineral-driven oak frame.
