Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie


There are many archaeological remains found in the ground around the property of Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie, signifying that an ancient Roman mansion once stood in the location of the chateau.

Since 1873 this vineyard of 5.5 hectares has been under a family of wine traders. Located on the clay-limestone hill of Pavie, it has Pavie and La Gaffeliere as immediate neighbours. It also got a plot next to Ausone.

I have recently tasted the 2004 vintage and below is my tasting note:
 
Good quality St-Emilion of medium ruby color, the wine has reasonable concentration on the nose, showing developing and complex aromas of blackberry and black cherry, cedar, meaty, chocolate and game. Medium in acidity, it has silky tannin and medium body, with reasonably intense flavors of b...lackberry and black cherry, plum, toast, cocoa. Having a reasonable finish, the wine is ready to drink now but can benefit from further ageing of another 2-3 years.
