2018 Fleur de Pédesclaux Pauillac
£27.00
“Good balance and well-defined fruits here. An enjoyable second wine, with a Pauillac character combined with a confident, sweet black cherry push of fruit though the mid-palate. Good-quality.”

Product Description
Château Pédesclaux is an estate fully committed to organic agriculture, under the leadership of a family dedicated to the pursuit of excellence. Now two hundred years old and under the direction of the Lorenzetti family, Château Pédesclaux continues a spectacular metamorphosis, guided by organic principles.
Ethereal, fresh, appealing to both the nose and the palate, Pédesclaux’s second wine is a flower that unfurls as you approach. Thanks to its reliance on a high proportion of Merlot, the wine is soft and gentle, with a delicious, silky texture. It has intense, compelling and savoury fruit aromas and, year after year, beautifully calibrated scents of white flowers, violets and small red berries. Exhibiting a more high-spirited elegance yet nonetheless showing remarkable length, Fleur de Pédesclaux is a delight. In the mouth, it is fresh, subtle, packed with fruit and beautifully smooth tannins, with a long finish. In this more floral expression, the marvellous complexity of our terroir is once again evident, but in a mouth-watering style that is instantly festive.
