Fleur de Pédesclaux Pauillac AOC (Château Pédesclaux 2nd wine)

TECHNICAL DATA
Alcohol 13%

APPEARANCE
Deep and lively garnet color.

NOSE
It has intense, compelling and savoury fruit aromas and beautifully calibrated scents of white flowers, violets and small red berries.

PALATE
Thanks to its reliance on a high proportion of Merlot, the wine is soft and gentle, with a delicious, silky texture. In the mouth, it is fresh, subtle, packed with fruit and smooth tannins, with a long finish.

AGEING
Following vinification the young wine is transferred to French oak barrels for 16 months to soften Pauillac’s firm tannins.

PAIRING
Try it with homemade burgers or even some Chinese crispy shredded duck pancakes.
