| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze Château Pavie Decesse 2019 opent met kersen en bosbessen naast ceder, toast, kruidnagel en een hint van walnoot, en presenteert zich vol en gelaagd met fijnkorrelige tannines en een krachtige, elegante structuur. Dankzij die rijpe fruittoon, kruidigheid en stevige tannines staat hij prachtig naast rijk vlees zoals gegrild rundvlees, gekruide lamsgerechten, stevig wild en rijpe kazen; de tannines snijden door vet en sauzen terwijl de fruitigheid de smaken complimenteert. Extra geslaagd worden gerechten bereid met grill of rosteren voor een aangename rooksmaak, een kruidkorst op lamsrack of een saus op basis van rode wijn en jeneverbessen bij hert, en bij kaas kies je voor ouder geworden exemplaren zoals Comté of oude Gouda. |

From a small vineyard located on the limestone slopes above Pavie itself, the Perse family's 2019 Pavie Decesse exhibits aromas of ripe cherries, crème de cassis and fruit liqueurs mingled with notions of menthol, vanilla pod and cloves. Full-bodied, rich and extracted, it's thick and muscular, with lively acids and prodigious reserves of chewy tannin that assert themselves on the finish. While it is a touch toned down by comparison with the wines produced here a decade ago, it remains one of the inkiest, most extracted wines in Saint-Émilion. I tend to think that an even gentler vinification would bear dividends without sacrificing the concentration and intensity of flavor that can be taken for granted with a terroir of such quality and viticulture of such exigence.

From: 2019 Bordeaux: A Long, Strange Trip (Jun, 2020)
The 2019 Pavie-Decesse is off the charts brilliant. Blueberry jam, graphite, menthol, licorice, espresso, lavender and cloves are some of the many nuances that unfold in a statuesque Saint-Émilion of dizzying scale. Big, brawny and powerful, the 2019 is going to require years in bottle to blossom, but it is immensely promising and very clearly a great wine in the making. Yields were just 17 hectoliters per hectare. Sadly, production is down about 40% because two parcels are being redeveloped. The use of only the healthiest parcels most likely explains why Pavie-Decesse is so exceptional in 2019. Henrique Da Costa, Gérard Perse's son-in-law, explained that while 2019 was hot and dry, conditions were not extremely hot. Cool temperatures in the evenings provided respite from the daytime heat, while water reserves in the soils from the wet spring allowed the vines to avoid stress. As for the wines, they are superb across the board. Most of the attention will naturally center on Pavie, but the entire range is terrific.

From: Uncertain Smile: Bordeaux 2019 (Jun 2020)
The 2019 Pavie-Decesse was cropped at a measly 17hl/ha on 5 October, the same day as Bellevue-Mondotte. It is the one cuvée from proprietor Gérard Perse that suggested a bit of sur-maturité, displaying prune and dates aromas, perhaps a few bunches here that could have been picked earlier? The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins, fleshy but nicely structured and no, there are no indications of excessive ripeness in the mouth. There is an attractive mineral vein embroidered on the finish and certainly a very persistent aftertaste with impressive salinity. If the bouquet can address that over-ripeness it will merit a higher appraisal.
