Chateau Pedesclaux - Pauillac 5eme Grand Cru Classe 2005

Château Pedesclaux lies on a chalky plateau overlooking the town of Pauillac and among such illustrious Châteaux as Mouton Rothschild, Lafite Rothschild and Pontet Canet.It was founded at the beginning of the 19th century by Mr. Urbain Pierre Pedesclaux, a well-known wine broker in Bordeaux, and was then classified in 1855 as a 5th Growth Grand Cru Classé. It is now in the hands of the Jugla family who, of late, have invested huge amounts of money and effort into the development of the chateau and the vines—the result now speaks for itself.

Bottle Size : 75cl

Alcohol Percentage : 13% Abv

Personal opinion : a little bit on the expensive side but if you don't mind paying this price you will be hugely impressed. In my opinion, this is one of the secret treasures of Pauillac. Keep the bottles in your cellar for a few years and experience something special.

Beringer Founder's Estate - Cabernet Saubignon 2005

The Beringer Founders Estate Cabernet bursts with bright cassis, black fruit and sweet brown spice aromas with just a touch of vanilla that leads into a juicy mouthfeel. A balanced dose of structured tannins and its long finish make this unmistakably a California Cabernet. However, this Cabernet doesn't need to be cellared; it's ready to drink now.

Bottle Size : 75cl

Alcohol Percentage : 13.5% Vol.

Personal Opinion : A little strong in alcohol, but still very nice. Enjoyable Californian wine. We normally don't go for this kind of wine, but I was offered a drink while visiting some friends and I was very impressed with this one. I suppose this is exactly how you discover something different. I would class this wine as an everyday wine, easy to drink and you don't need too much of it.

Personal Score : 8/10
