Description

In Pauillac, Château Pédesclaux is fortunate to have a mosaic of terroirs (clay, limestone, gravel) which allows the wine to express a beautiful variety of olfactory and gustatory sensations. The red grape varieties, which are about 30 years old, are cultivated according to reasoned methods and are harvested by hand, severely sorted and de-stemmed before vinification, which takes place in stainless steel vats adapted to each plot.

The wine is aged between 12 and 16 months in oak barrels, with the proportion of new wood reaching around 60%.

Vintage 2024 blend: 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot.

James Suckling: “ A light but crunchy wine with plenty of red cherries, minerals and hibiscus. Medium-bodied palate with juicy fruit and firm, fine-grained tannins. Long and really balanced. There is a lot to like if you want freshness and drinkability.”
