Chateau Ormes de Pez Saint Estephe 2023 (750ml)
Chateau Ormes de Pez Saint Estephe 2023 (750ml)
Juicy blackcurrant, ripe blackberry and fresh dark cherry give this Saint-Estèphe a rich, inviting character, complemented by notes of cedar, violet and gentle spice. The palate is well structured, with fine tannins, refreshing acidity and layers of dark fruit leading to a long, savoury finish.
From the Cazes family, also behind Château Lynch-Bages, Château Ormes de Pez offers a classic expression of Saint-Estèphe. The 2023 vintage combines generous fruit with freshness and elegance, making it an appealing Bordeaux with excellent ageing potential.

A floral, complex wine, the 2023 Château Ormes De Pez offers red and black fruits, sappy spring flowers, and graphite on the nose. Medium to full-bodied, round, and supple on the palate, it has polished tannins and outstanding length. Based on 55% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot and aged 16 months in 45% new French oak, it's a beautiful effort from this estate.

Some nice aromatics, not massively expressive. Blackcurrant, plum and cranberry - all crisp fruit aspects. A little tart and high toned, but there’s such ripeness too so you get high acidity with quite concentration that give a wide mouthfeel and under it all there’s freshness and a cool mint tone. Lots going on with a steely core too. Not quite harmonised but will be lovely. 7% press wine. 6% Petit Verdot completes the blend. Barrel Sample: 92

Aromas of dark plums, violets, frozen strawberries and dark cherries. Tightly wound and a little grainy, with a medium to full body and a long, tight, slightly chewy finish. 55% merlot, 34% cabernet sauvignon, 6% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot.
