Château PAVIE MACQUIN
1er grand cru classé
- 2015
- Saint-Émilion
Rated 17/20 in 2015 by la Revue du Vin de France « Allonge supérieure, fougue contenue, un profil subtilement épicé et fumé commence à se dessiner ».
An ultra-refined great wine, with a mineral tension that is out of the ordinary in Bordeaux, the fruit of the great terroir of the Côte Pavie, but also of the complicity of Mr Nicolas Thienpont and Mr Stéphane Derenoncourt, his oenologists since 1994.
Rated 17/20 in 2015 by the Revue du Vin de France "superior length, contained ardour, a subtly spicy and smoky profile is beginning to take shape" and 17.5/20 in 2016 "a full-bodied, rich, very ripe wine but held together by an almost sharp acidity!".
- To keep or to drink :
- Wait 5 to 10 years
- Apogée :
- 2030-2045
- Potential alcohol :
- 14.5%

Rated 93/100 by Neal Martin « The 2017 Pavie-Macquin was impressive from barrel and now in bottle, it continues to show potential. [...] Excellent. » (Feb. 2020)
Rated 95/100 by Antonio Galloni « The 2017 Pavie Macquin is a rich, deep and super-expressive wine with remarkable persistence. As always, Pavie Macquin is a potent Saint-Émilion, but the 2017 has terrific energy as well. » (March 2020)
Rated 93/100 by Jean-Marc Quarin « Après une entrée en bouche délicate, le vin se présente suave, avec un fruité très éclatant en milieu de bouche. Plein d’énergie, il s’élance en finale, très bien construit, savoureux et long. » (Oct. 2020)
