Chateau Pavie Decesse

Chateau Pavie Decesse

Chateau Pavie-Decesse, is situated on top of the St. Emilion limestone plateau, just above Chateau Pavie (with both estates sharing similar terroir, histories and even owners)! Chateau Pavie-Decesse can be traced all the way back to ancient Roman times. Historians are aware that vines were planted here at the estate in the fourth century, and they clearly knew what they were doing in those days because Chateau Pavie-Decesse now produces one of the top Right Bank wines today. Until 1855, the year of the classification of the Medoc , Pavie and Pavie-Decesse were part of the same vineyard. That all changed when Ferdinand Bouffard, the owner at the time separated the vineyards and created 2 new vineyards. It was in this moment that Chateau Pavie-Decesse was born. In 2002, Chateau Pavie-Decesse became a little bit smaller with 6 hectares of Pavie-Decesse’s estate becoming a part of Pavie. This merge took place because of the similarity of terroirs, and a request from Gerard Perse who purchased the Chateau in 1997. He was already the owner of Chateau Monbousquet and after the sale concluded, Gerard Perse ordered extensive work in the vineyards and in all the wine making facilities. This included restoring the barrel cellar to the design that was originally created by Ferdinand Bouffard in the 1800’s. Along with allowing a portion of Pavie Decesse to become part of Pavie, the I.N.A.O also authorized the integration of the La Clusiere vineyards to Chateau Pavie. The style of wine produced at Pavie-Decesse combines opulent, rich, sensuous textures with minerality, freshness and concentration. This special Bordeaux wine is a hedonistic treat. Due to its lush style, it drinks well young, yet it develops additional complexity when aged.
