Château Pavie 2012 is an exclusive red wine from Saint-Émilion in Bordeaux, France, which unites depth, power, and classic right-bank elegance in a refined and characterful expression. The wine appears intense and harmonious with a beautiful balance between ripe fruit, structure, and finesse, making it an obvious choice for those seeking a grand Bordeaux with both personality and aging potential.

On the nose, the wine opens with notes of dark cherries, blackcurrants, and ripe plum, beautifully complemented by violet, cedarwood, tobacco, liquorice, and fine spicy undertones. The aromatic profile is deep, complex, and inviting, with a beautiful combination of dark fruit and classic Saint-Émilion character. The taste is full-bodied, concentrated, and silky smooth with ripe tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, lingering finish, where both fruit, spice, and minerality are clearly evident. The result is a wine with power, elegance, and great depth.

Château Pavie 2012 pairs particularly well with beef, lamb, game, duck, braised dishes, and aged cheeses. It is a wine for special dinners and for those seeking a stylish and characterful Bordeaux with complexity, intensity, and classic French finesse.

95 /100

The 2012 Pavie celebrates its reclassification and upgrade to Class A St.-Emilion by sporting a new black label with gold print. Fortunately, every Pavie has benefitted since Perse began a complete makeover of this estate in 1998. From 47-year-old vines, the 2012 has an inky purple color, judicious toasty oak in the nose interwoven with copious blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, Christmas spices, as well as licorice and graphite. Full-bodied, rich and moderately tannic, it will require 5-7 years of bottle age but should drink well for 20-30 years. Kudos to Chantal and Gerard Perse for their extraordinary commitment to quality, which is so evident in this more challenging vintage than some of the great years like 2009 and 2010. Very low yields of 28 hectoliters per hectare were obtained from this 92-acre estate. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

The aromatics hit immediately with sandalwood, cedar and gunsmoke, along with sweet baking spices, cocoa and coffee bean, muscular and full of estate signature. An important vintage, as this was the year that Pavie was promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classé A, and certainly it makes an impression, with a layered mix of opulent black fruits and tight oyster shell and sea spray salinity. 80% new oak for ageing, 28hl/h yield.

94–96. Barrel sample. This is a powerful wine, which has shown a change in style toward elegance in recent years. The palate has delicious Merlot fruitiness along with black currant acidity and a dense structure. Fine minerality at the end with juicy acidity.

About the grape

Rød Bordeaux Blend

Rød Bordeaux Blend er en kombination af de druesorter, der traditionelt bruges til Bordeaux' berømte rødvine. Det er ikke en officiel betegnelse, men en praktisk måde at tale om en vinsstil, der nu dyrkes over hele verden – fra Californien til Australien, Sydafrika til Chile.

Essensen er fleksibilitet: typisk en blend af Cabernet Sauvignon og Merlot, ofte suppleret med Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot og Malbec. Hver drue tilfører noget unikt – struktur, frugt, krydderier eller blødhed.

Rød Bordeaux Blend er for dig, der søger kraftfuld struktur og dybe smagsnuancer. Det er vine med personlighed – nogle kan nydes straks, andre udvikler sig smukt gennem årene. Her får du en vinsstil med historisk fundament, der stadig inspirerer vinmagere verden over.

Serving

Rød Bordeaux Blend serveres bedst ved 16-18°C, hvor vinens frugt, struktur og kompleksitet står skarpest. Serveres den for varm, kan alkoholen virke mere dominerende, mens for lav temperatur dæmper aromaerne. Bordeaux anbefaler selv 16-18°C til strukturerede og lagringsværdige rødvine.
