Bordeaux Futures 2022 estimated arrival Spring 2025
Appellation: Pauillac
Size: 750mL
Winemakers Notes:
"In 2023, it’s all about the Cabernets! Cabernet makes up 80% of the Château Pédesclaux blend, made possible by an extensive Cabernet planting program launched more than a decade ago. This dominance imparts Château Pédesclaux with great complexity and subtle balance. Ultra-precision extraction down to the very last millimetre, the hallmark of our 100% gravity-fed winery, adds freshness anddelicate tannins.
Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc."
Ratings:
95-96 James Suckling
"There is a really pretty, powdery-tannin texture to this, with dark-berry and currant character. Some orange peel, too. It’s full and layered with a sense of precision and focus. Framed and open-grained in the texture. Velvety. Real Pauillac personality here. 70% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot and 10% cabernet franc. May be better than 2022."
92-94 Vinous
" The 2023 Pedesclaux is one of the best wines I have tasted here in some time, maybe ever. It offers a striking mix of ripe dark fruit and bright acids. My impression is that the extractions are less pushed, which really seems to emphasize vibrancy in the fruit. The 10% Cabernet Franc really lifts the aromatics, but it’s the wine's balance and energy that I admire most. Terrific. –Antonio Galloni"
90-93 The Wine Advocate
" The 2023 Pedésclaux is the estate's second organic-certified vintage. A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, it offers up attractive aromas of cassis and dark berries mingled with notions of mint and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered palate with sweet tannins, succulent acids and a rather rich, giving profile."
