Perse Latitudes After a first career in the retail industry, Gérard Perse decided in the 1990s to fulfill his passion for vineyards and wine. His future would be written in Saint-Emilion, his land of choice. He acquired, among others, Château Pavie, a premier grand cru classé 'A' of Saint-Emilion, Monbousquet, a classified grand cru of Saint-Emilion, and later Clos Lunelles in Castillon, Côtes de Bordeaux. Wine is a product that can be enhanced both by its origin and the dishes associated with it. Thus the Perse Family acquired the Hostellerie de Plaisance, a renowned place of gastronomy and lifestyle, which later became Hôtel de Pavie along with its double Michelin-starred restaurant, La Table de Pavie. The collaboration since 2020 with Yannick Alléno, a true icon of French gastronomy, embodies the new dynamics and ambition embraced by the family. Château Pavie, "Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé A" The wine history of Château Pavie goes back to the 4th century. The estate experienced a renaissance in 1998 when the Perse family acquired it. From then on, Gérard Perse raised the estate to the highest summits of the appellation, symbolized in 2012 by its promotion to Premier Grand Cru Classé A. Its vineyard is characterized by a great diversity of terroirs between the "limestone plateau" of Saint-Emilion, located at about 85 meters from the level of the Dordogne, and the "middle of the hill" located at about 55 meters from the level of the Dordogne. This exceptional terroir expresses itself wonderfully in the wines, giving them elegance and finesse, freshness and purity. 2021 is a very beautiful example of this. In 2022, Château Pavie incorporates two other vineyards of the Perse family, Château Pavie-Decesse and Château Bellevue-Mondotte, which increased the surface area of its vineyard by just under 5 hectares.
