2017 Esprit de Pavie - Bordeaux

Esprit de Pavie is a Bordeaux AOC wine blending 65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon from both the renowned Château Pavie in Saint-Émilion and the nearby Château Clos L'Église in the Côtes de Castillon, purchased by Pavie's owner, Gérard Perse. The nose presents herbaceous notes of cedar and tobacco, followed by bold cherry and Asian fruit. The firmness is also evident on the palate, with a hint of licorice supporting the dark fruit, and a crisp finish that pairs well with food.

Excellent with red meats, chicken and cheeses, it is a must in your cellar.
