PEDESC16
Still considered the new kid on the block in Pauillac, this wine was made from blending 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 0.4% Petit Verdot and 0.3% Cabernet Franc , reaching 13.3% alcohol. Richly colored, the wine shows off its ready, saucy, crunchy cassis, tobacco, cigar box and lead pencil aromas with ease, together with a duvet of tannins, serious concentration, lift and length. As more of the vineyard becomes planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, this will keep getting better and better.
94-95 pts - JSuckling
First serious wine ever from Pedesclaux. Full body, with racy tannins, with bright acidity.Tight still. This has more cabernet sauvignon character. 65% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, 5% cabernet franc. Better in 2016.
