The 2022 Chateau Pibran from Pauillac, Bordeaux, France is a true testament to the exceptional quality of this renowned wine region. A deep ruby hue greets the eye, hinting at the intensity and complexity to follow. Upon the nose, a bouquet of dark berries, currants, and subtle notes of oak and spice invite you in for a closer look. On the palate, the wine delivers a full-bodied experience with velvety tannins and a rich, layered texture. Flavors of black cherry, plum, and a touch of tobacco mingle together, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This vintage showcases the signature elegance and refinement of Chateau Pibran, making it a standout among the finest Bordeaux wines. Enjoy now or cellar for years to come.

From a 37-acre vineyard, Château Pavie Macquin is stunningly situated on the clay-limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion on the right bank of Bordeaux. 2010 has produced a formidable wine: a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a top release of the harvest year and a highlight from St-Émillion in 2010. Tannins, restraint and inward concentration are motifs, this is a wine for the patient, sophisticated collector who wishes to embellish a cellar with pedigree wines that need time and maturity to come to the fore.

Château Pavie Decesse is a St. Emilion Grand Cru Classé property in the Côtes sub-district, considered the equal of its illustrious neighbour, Chateau Pavie. The origins of both can be traced back to ancient Roman times. The 3.5ha vineyard, on chalky, limestone and clay soils and contiguous with Pavie, is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. Following cold maceration, the Chateau wine is vinified in temperature-controlled oak vats. Malolactic fermentation takes place in French oak barrels. The wine is aged in 80% new oak for between 18 and 24 months, depending on vintage character. Production is small, around 650 dozen each year. The hedonistic Pavie Decesse style combines opulent, rich, sensuous textures with minerality, freshness and concentration. Due to its lush style Pavie Decesse drinks well young, yet does develop additional complexity with time in the cellar. Wine quality has been consistently excellent under the ownership, since 1997, of Gerard and Chantal Perse.
