Note di degustazione
Precise and carefully extracted, showing the work that was underway at the time but it is still far from Pédesclaux today. The tannins have some of the fierce appellation quality if you sit with them. but this is a softly spoken version of Pauillac, no need to wait too long. The ripeness of the vintage comes through strongly, and it is juicy on the finish.

The 2010 Château Pédesclaux checks in as a blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc. It’s a rich, chunky effort that has loads of black fruits, plum, and earthy, and while it lacks elegance, it certainly packs plenty of fruit. Drink it over the coming decade or so.
The 2010 Pedesclaux is the same blend as the 2009 and the first vintage where the extension to the vineyards came into play, though six hectares that were making poor grapes were excluded from the final blend. It has a superior bouquet compared to the 2009 in terms of precision and delineation, quite "airy" and floral, almost Margaux-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a little foursquare and more freshness here than the previous vintage with respectable tension on the finish that just lacks a little length in the context of the vintage. Drink this now and over the next 12-15 years. Tasted March 2016.
Dark chocolate, cassis, very punchy tannins, austere and tense. Lots of flavour, but in a compact, impenetrable form. (RH)
