2015 Chateau Pedesclaux - Pauillac (750ml)

Ex-Chateau release. 2015's are drinking beautifully. You'd be hard-pressed to find a Pauillac at this price with bottle age!

Château Pedesclaux has undergone a remarkable transformation since the Lorenzetti family took over in 2009 — a full replanting, a striking new cellar, and a renewed focus on precision that's pushed this Fifth Growth firmly into the conversation with Pauillac's best. 2015 was an excellent Left Bank vintage, and this Cabernet Sauvignon-led blend shows it: ripe blackcurrant, cedar, and graphite on the nose, with a full-bodied, well-structured palate, firm but polished tannins, and real length. Serious, classically styled Pauillac that's still flying somewhat under the radar relative to its neighbors.
