The estate and the wine |
|
|
"In the Golden Triangle!" Perfectly situated at the intersection of Ausone, Pavie, and La Gaffelière... Château St Georges Côte Pavie is a small, family-owned 5-hectare estate producing exceptional wines under the guidance of the renowned Stéphane Derenoncourt! This boutique vineyard crafts wines that are both velvety and intense, reflecting the true essence of the clay-limestone terroir where they are born. |

The 2018 Côte Madeleine Saint-Emilion Grand Cru skillfully balances the warmth of the vintage with precision and harmony. The ripe Merlots show beautifully, with notes of licorice and balsamic. Despite the richness and opulence of the year, the wine remains well-structured, offering a balanced, elegant, medium-bodied profile. It’s ready to drink now, with the potential to age gracefully for another 10 years. |
