The nose is powerful and offers a small concentration. It reveals notes of ripe black fruit (blackberry, plum, cassis) associated with slight notes of pepper. The palate is fruity, generous and offers a little suavity.

Reviews:

• Jeff Leve: Bright red cherries, with red licorice, spice and cocoa in its personality. The wine is made in a medium bodied forward, fresh, early drinking style.

• VertdeVin: The nose is powerful and offers a small concentration. It reveals notes of ripe black fruit (blackberry, plum, cassis) associated with slight notes of pepper. The palate is fruity, generous and offers a little suavity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of black cherry and blackberry cream associated with touches of blueberry and a very slight hint of vanilla. Tannins are fine and ripe. Good length. An easy-drinking wine.

Producer Information

As owners of the iconic Chteaux, Pavie, Pavie-Decesse, Monbousquet, Bellevue-Mondotte, and Clos Lunelles, Grard Perse and the Perse Family have redefined their legacy. Beginning in the 90’s, Grard and his family set forth to re-invigorate some of the most sought after wines of the Right Bank. Tremendous investment in each winery, vineyard, as well as the expertise of the legendary Bordeaux winemaker Michel Rolland, has reestablished each Chteaux as the best of their appellations. Fast-forward to 2008, Monsieur Perse along with his team saw a re-imagined expression of the complexity of terroirs found on the Right Bank. By selecting premium holdings from young vines of Chteau Pavie and blending the fruit with two estate-owned vineyards in Castillon-Ctes de Bordeaux, Esprit de Pavie was born. The sites selected for Esprit de Pavie from the Dordogne Valley — characterized by sandy-gravelly foothills, clay hillsides and clay-limestone plateau — manifest supple fruit, dense tannin and structure, with intense depth of flavor. This is world-class wine at its finest — no other premier estate in Bordeaux offers this quality to price.
