Over het wijnhuis | Château Pédesclaux zag het levenslicht in 1810, toen négociant Pierre-Urbain Pédesclaux wijngaarden overnam van de heer Lacoste, de eigenaar van Château Grand Puy in Pauillac. Nog geen 50 jaar later werd het opgenomen in de beroemde Grand Cru Classificatie van Médoc als 5eme Cru. |

Awards | "A crunchy and fresh 2020 with sliced oranges and redcurrants as well as cedar and nutmeg. Full-bodied with very firm and tight tannins. Bright finish. Crushed stone at the end as well. Needs three to five years to soften. 56% cabernet sauvignon, 34% merlot, 5% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot. First year with organic farming. Try after 2027." - James Suckling "56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot. Light on the Pauillac scale but clean and well made. Dark-fruit (blackcurrant) and vanilla aroma and flavour. Fine-grained tannins. Neat and compact. Could improve if it fills out in the bottle. (JL)" - Jancis Robinson "Matured in 55% new oak, the 2020 Pédesclaux, has a very Cabernet-driven nose as indeed, this Pauillac estate has been gradually moving towards the variety in recent years. Blackberry, freshly-rolled tobacco and light pencil box notes. This is clean and precise. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, fresh and fleshy, yet there is backbone here with a gentle but insistent grip towards the smooth finish. Maybe it just needs a little more complexity overall, but this should still drink well for the next two decades." - Vinous "Tense and coiled, lovely styling here with bright and vibrant black fruits, a soft hit of creaminess alongside liquorice-laced tannins. Power and brawn, clearly structured and intense, this will age very well just a bit shy and tight right now. Dark chocolate, menthol freshness, plum and rosemary. Excellent tannic grip and I love the sweetness on the palate as well as overall freshness. Something very captivating about this and upscored from a tasting in September." - Decanter |
