About Château Saint-Georges (Côte Pavie) 2017
Bottle (75cl)

Château Saint-Georges Côte Pavie is a small family property located in Saint-Emilion, between the famous Château Pavie and Château La Gaffelière. Its small five-hectare vineyard, on a clay-limestone hillside, is planted with 80% Merlot, the rest being divided between Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The average age of the vines is around thirty years.

Due to family tradition and authenticity, the vineyard of Château Saint-Georges Côte Pavie is worked in accordance with the principles of sustainable agriculture, with regular ploughing of the soil, no chemical fertilizers, and manual harvesting.

Produced from a blend dominated by Merlot (80%) supplemented by Cabernet Franc (20%), Château Saint-Georges Côte Pavie 2017 has benefited from traditional vinification in stainless steel vats, followed by maturing in new oak barrels.

In the glass, Château Saint-Georges Côte Pavie 2017 exhibits a beautiful deep garnet/purple color and distils an exuberant bouquet of jammy red and black fruits, plums, currants, and blackberries wrapped in scents of wood and dried herbs.
On the palate, the 2017 St.-Georges Côte Pavie is medium to full-bodied, with impressive concentration and a velvety tannic line. The red and black fruit aromas unfold on the palate revealing a beautiful sensation of freshness, and then finish on a long and delicious finish.

The 2017 vintage of Château Saint-Georges Côte Pavie can already be tasted. It will remain at its peak of maturity for at least twenty years.
