The vineyard is located 1.5 kilometres south-east of the town of Saint-Émilion in the area of the same name (Bordeaux). It was owned by Albert Macquin until the end of the 19th century. The first part of the name Pavie is derived from the French term for vineyard peach. Macquin had rendered great services in the grafting of vines in the fight against phylloxera. Today, the estate is owned by direct descendants of the Corre-Macquin family. It is managed by Nicolas Thienpont. The vineyards cover over 15 hectares and are planted with Merlot (75%), Cabernet Franc (20%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%). They are cultivated according to the rules of biodynamic viticulture. Formerly classified as Grand Cru Classé, the estate was upgraded to Premier Grand Cru Classé B in 2006. The long-lasting red wine is matured in two-thirds new barriques. The second wine is called "Les Chênes de Macquin".
