About the winery Château Pav ie

The vineyard of Château Pavie is 42 hectares. It is a large entity, but contains different terroirs, each with its own microclimate. Château Pavie is often one of the last wineries to complete the harvest. They work responsibly: 70% of the vineyard is now treated organically, they aim for 100%. Today, Gerard Perse is the man in charge. A self-made man and millionaire from Paris. The son of a painter, he took over a small grocery store in a suburb in 1976 and then achieved enormous success with franchise supermarkets for Champion (Carrefour). Until he only wanted to do wine. In 1998, after having bought a few other wineries, he bought Château Pavie. In the region, he is seen as a renouncer of Saint-Émilion wines because of the techniques he used, such as the early cutting of unripe bunches of grapes to limit production and increase quality. Considered an unheard-of waste at the time, today almost everyone does it. The success of his wines has improved his reputation a lot. Not only Parker, but also other international wine critics give the highest scores. And wine with a story.
