Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel
Saint Estèphe

Vinous – Neil Martin – 92-94/100
The 2022 Ormes de Pez is matured in 45% new oak for a planned 16
months. It has a perfumed and floral bouquet, quite sensual for a SaintEstèphe, developing blue fruit with time in the glass. The oak is neatly
enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a high-toned and racy
opening. Good acidity, the Merlot (51%) occupies the driving seat and
ensures its silky-textured finish, a mote of chalk dust on the aftertaste. Just
needs its élevage to knit it all together.
Robert Parker The Wine Advocate – 90-92/100
Exhibiting aromas of rich cassis, pencil shavings and petals, the 2022 Ormes de Pez is medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with a deep core of fruit and plenty of powdery structuring tannin. It’s a blend of 51% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
