Pedesclaux was granted the growth status in the 1855 classification. Luckily for the estate, Pierre Urban Pedesclaux was a member of the group deciding the rankings. After a few sales, In 1951 the estate falls into the hands of Lucien Jugla, whose family has roots in the Medoc dating back to the middle ages. In 1960, Pedesclaux is merged with Château Belle-Rose. The building at Chateau Belle Rose is the image on the label. In 2009, Francois and Jacky Lorenzetti acquire the property.

The 48 hectare, Left Bank vineyard of Chateau Pedesclaux is planted to 48% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. In time, it is the goal of the estate to continue to increase the portion of Cabernet Sauvignon in the vineyards.
