It's impossible to talk about Saint-Emilion's great wines without mentioning Château Pavie Macquin, one of the most complex and seductive. The Domaine was founded by Albert Macquin (1852-1911), a specialist in the study of American rootstocks and the art of grafting.
Saint-Emilion and the French vineyard as a whole owe him the use of the grafted plant, which was to save the vineyard ruined by Phylloxera at the end of the 19th century. His great-grandchildren, the Corre-Macquin family, are still at the helm of Domaine, and managing director Nicolas Thienpont works in collaboration with oenologist Stéphane Derenoncourt. Together, they help make this illustrious terroir shine year after year.
The Château Pavie Macquin would manage to earn its place as Saint-Emilion's Premier Grand Cru Classé at the 2006 edition, a position it still holds today, testifying to its consistency.
The Château Pavie Macquin looks after a 15-hectare vineyard, ideally situated on Saint-Emilion's highest plateau, part of which overlooks the Fongaban valley. It is planted on clay-limestone soils, and the grape varieties are 84% Merlot, 14% Cabernet franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon.
An Second wine is produced by the estate with equal care and precision, Les Chênes de Macquin.
The Château Pavie Macquin offers wines that prove unforgettable. They are fine and generous, where fruit expression is as bright as it is elegant.
Château Pavie Macquin is named after the grandfather of the current owners: Albert Macquin (1852-1911), who Saint-Emilion has to thank for the use of grafted plants designed to save the vineyards devastated by phylloxera.
In 1994, Nicolas Thienpont was named the manager. Recently, his son Cyrille has begun to play an active role.
2022 brought out the best in the plateau terroirs.
The power of the clay, the mineral tension of the limestone, and aromatic freshness all reached a peak in the extreme weather conditions of the vintage.
