The Château Pédesclaux Pauillac Grand Cru Classé 2021 comes from the Pauillac appellation in the Bordeaux region of France and belongs to the Cinquième Grand Cru Classé according to the 1855 classification. The 2021 vintage is composed of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot.

In the glass, this wine shows a ruby red color with purple reflections. The nose is refined and fresh, with aromas of red and black berries, floral accents such as violets, and a subtle touch of graphite and tobacco. In the mouth, the wine presents itself with elegance and precision: fresh acidity, ripe but fine-grained tannins and a remarkably pure fruit profile. The structure is leaner than in warmer years, but retains a beautiful depth and complexity. The finish is long, mineral and spicy, with a lively freshness typical of this vintage.

Château Pédesclaux 2021 is a wine with a classic signature and a special gastronomic profile. It goes perfectly with refined meat dishes such as roast veal, rack of lamb or poultry, but also with lighter game dishes. Preferably decant and serve at a temperature of 17 to 18 ° C to fully express its aromatic finesse.

  • Grilled entrecote with rosemary potatoes and a shallot jus
    The structure of the meat and the hearty jus perfectly complement the firm but refined tannins of the wine. The earthy notes of the rosemary enhance the spiciness in the wine.

  • Roasted chicken with thyme, garlic and lemon, served with roasted vegetables
    The fresh acids of the wine hold up well to the citrus notes in the dish, while the roasted flavors harmonize well with the use of wood in the wine.

  • Mushroom risotto with Parmesan cheese and fresh sage
    The creamy texture and umami of mushrooms and cheese complement the floral and fruity elements of the wine, while the freshness balances the richness of the dish.

  • Roasted leg of lamb with a spicy crust of mustard, thyme and black olives
    The intense flavours of lamb and the heartiness of olives counterbalance the elegant tannin structure and accentuate the depth of the wine.

  • Beetroot carpaccio with burrata, walnuts and balsamic reduction
    The earthy sweetness of the beetroot and the creaminess of the burrata create an unexpectedly fresh and harmonious combination with the fruity and floral character of the wine.

  • Beef tataki with truffle soy dressing and thinly sliced radish on a bed of watercress
    The umami of beef and soy sauce with the earthy truffle notes form an intriguing combination with the complexity and refinement of the wine, while the radish provides a fresh, slightly spicy touch.
