Château Pavie is one of the leading producers of Saint-Émilion and the 2001 is a beautiful wine from a vintage that is often overshadowed by the previous year but has continued to improve over time. A blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, it is classically rich, ripe and powerful, with impressive savoury depth and effortless balance throughout.
