Château Pédesclaux
The Chateau Pedesclaux was created in the beginning of the 19 century in 1810 by Mr Pierre Urbain Pedesclaux a well-known wine broker of Bordeaux. In 1855 the Chateau Pedesclaux was classified 5° great growth. In 1891 the Count of Gastebois bought the property. It was the subject of a full reconstruction which helped to improve the quality of the wines. After the death of Mr. de Gastebois in 1904 the administration of the estate is entrusted to his son-in-law Count Bernard de Vesins. He bequeathed the property in 1919 to his grandchildren the Count of Xavier Erceville and Count Michel du Lac. In 1928 the first crusher-de-stalker Médocain COQ brand is used at the Chateau Pedesclaux.
Description
"So aromatic with crushed currants, raspberries and blackberries with hints of graphite and lead pencil. Full-bodied and very tight with beautiful tannins and a long, flavorful finish. The tannins really build at the end of the palate. Try from 2024." James Suckling
Food Pairing
To be enjoyed with red meat, game, or leg of lamb.
