Wine information:
Chateau Pedesclaux was founded in 1810 by winebroker Pierre Urbain Pédesclaux, who operated it with his wife until 1891, when the estate was sold to the Count de Gastebois. In 1930, Lucien Jugla became tenant, and eventually purchased the Château in 1950. The estate remains in the Jugla family today. The vineyard covers an area of 28 hectares and produces about 8,000 cases of wine every year. The Château has 26 hectares in Pauillac, but also two hectares in the Haut-Médoc area. Wines from Pédesclaux are composed of roughly 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc
