Concentrated dark berry fruits, well integrated tannins, delivers the heavy spiced notes of the vintage, cloves and cumin, with grilled toast, pinenuts, crayon and liquorice. Vincent Bache-Gabrielsen director, 65% new oak. Score: 94 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2042 06 March 2025 |

The 2022 Pédesclaux, matured in 60% new oak, has a very floral bouquet with violet and peony infusing the blackberry and blueberry fruit aromas. There is just a little jamminess when juxtaposed against its peers. The palate is medium-bodied, ripe and bold, with a fleshy opening and just a touch of sucrosity on the finish that detracts from its nobility. Score: 91 Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2027-2047 12 February 2025 |

The 2022 Pédesclaux is packed with black cherry, plum, new leather, licorice and chocolate. This sumptuous, bold Pauillac has plenty to offer in a decidedly flamboyant style. Score: 93 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2027-2042 28 January 2025 |

The 2022 Château Pédesclaux is a beautiful wine, with an almost bloody, iron-like character in its cassis and blue fruits as well as notes of leafy herbs. It's medium to full-bodied, has a layered, silky texture, and terrific purity. Score: 92 - 94 Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com 05 October 2023 |

Now certified organic, the 2022 Pedésclaux exhibits aromas of dark berries, plums and pencil shavings, followed by a medium to full-bodied, suave and refined palate that's a touch lean on the finish. As it fleshes out with élevage, it should come into better balance. Score: 89 - 91 William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 28 April 2023 |

The pure cabernet character comes through clearly here with blackcurrants and blueberries, and flowers such as lavender and sandalwood. Medium- to full-bodied. Racy and polished tannins and a long, flavorful finish. 68% cabernet sauvignon, 22% merlot, 7% cabernet franc and 3% petit verdot. From organically grown grapes. Score: 94 - 95 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 04 April 2023 |
