Description

James and Olivier Gailly, the commercial director of Chateau Pavie in Bordeaux, discuss the 2019 vintage."We were all quite impressed in '19 en primeur with the freshness we could get despite a relatively warm year," Olivier tells James. "The good news is that after bottling, the wine really keeps its freshness, so I think that's one main thing we notice on the whole range."James also asks Olivier his opinion about planting cabernet sauvignon in Bordeaux's Right Bank. "We often talk about it here and we say cabernet sauvignon, when it's planted in the right places, meaning it gets ripe, is a really great addition to the blend – we noticed that. And today in the vineyard of Pavie we have 20 percent planted of cabernet sauvignon."
