Pedesclaux 2015 is a Left Bank Bordeaux blend from the Pauillac appellation, composed of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, and 6% Petit Verdot. This wine has been aged for 18 months in oak barrels, with a proportion of 60% new and 40% one-year-old wood. The colour is medium garnet-purple, and the nose reveals earthy characteristics alongside dried herbs and a hint of garrigue, supported by red currant and blackberry aromas, topped with cedar. The palate shows a medium body, balancing freshness with juicy fruit and a chewy finish.
