Pedesclaux
Two centuries after its birth, Pédesclaux, has been experiencing an unprecedented revival with a complete overhaul and expansion of the vineyard as well as construction of a brand new gravity-fed winery and cellars designed by Jean-Michel Wilmotte. This 1855 Grand Cru Classé is located in one of the most desired parts of Pauillac, but for years it lived below the potential of its highly coveted terroir. In 2009 the estate was purchased by Jacky Lorenzetti who made drastic improvements, bringing this estate up to the world class calibre of its illustrious neighbours. By purchasing 12 hectares alongside Lafite and Mouton, the estate immediately gained top-flight pedigree.

James Suckling (95-96)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. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (85)The 2015 Fleur de Pédesclaux is a soft, fruity wine to drink now and over the next few year. Succulent red berry fruit and soft contours add to the wine's considerable near-term appeal. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90)The 2016 Fleur de Pédesclaux has a generous, rounded bouquet of wild strawberry and blackberry fruit mixed with briar and tobacco aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a pastille-like purity on the entry, displaying fine tannin and light grip but offering ebullient red berry fruit on the detailed finish. This is impressive for a second wine and will probably drink well after a couple of years. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89)Super-ripe red cherry, kirsch, mint, wild flowers and cedar give the 2017 Fleur de Pédesclaux striking aromatic top notes and plenty of brilliance. Fleur de Pédesclaux is not the most complex Pauillac readers will come across, but it is absolutely delicious and very easy to like. I would drink it over the next handful of years. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (85)The 2018 Fleur de Pédesclaux is a mid-weight, fruity Pauillac to drink now and over the next few years. It doesn't have the depth or power of the Grand Vin, but it also avoids the excesses of that wine. Crushed flowers, red berry fruit and spice linger. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (88)The 2020 Fleur de Pédesclaux has a more open-knit bouquet than I anticipated with vanillary red fruit and crushed strawberry scents. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasant sappiness on the entry, fine acidity, cohesive with quite an elegant, pure finish. This is a very commendable Deuxième Vin that surpasses my expectation from barrel. |
