Right Bank Saint-Émilion from clay-limestone plateau; Merlot-led blend aged in French oak.
Château Grand Pey Lescours sits on the clay-limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion's Right Bank, where the cooler microclimate and heavier soils favor Merlot ripeness without overextraction. The vineyard's northeast-facing aspect moderates summer heat, extending the growing season and building phenolic complexity.
The blend centers on Merlot with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, fermented in temperature-controlled vats and aged in French oak (proportion and duration typical of the appellation). This production approach yields a wine with structured tannins and mid-palate weight characteristic of the terroir.
Grand Cru classification reflects the site's historical recognition within Saint-Émilion's strict hierarchy. The wine develops secondary complexity over 5–8 years in bottle, though it remains approachable in youth.
Sommelier’s pick: Beef bourguignon with pearl onions and mushrooms · Roasted lamb shoulder with rosemary and garlic · Duck confit with cherry gastrique
