Château Pavie-Decesse is a Saint-Émilion property covering 3.65 hectares under vine. The estate produces a single wine, which is made predominantly from Merlot and a small proportion of Cabernet Franc. The wine is fermented in new oak barrels for up to 24 months with racking every 3 months. Final blending takes place just before bottling, without fining or filtering. This release is from the outstanding 2010 vintage, which produced wines with high tannins and high acidity, promising exceptional ageing potential.
