2019 Chateau Ormes de Pez, St Estephe, Bordeaux

HoldWell stockedJames Suckling 92-93/100

This is solid and compact at first tasting, perhaps to be expected in a year like 2019 because, as usual, Merlot comprises half the blend at this property. It feels a bit hidden; a wine we expect to be better at the château. But there is plenty to admire in the wine's construction, which is balanced and well thought-out. Drink 2024-2032.” Berry Bros. & Rudd “Plenty of punch in this Ormes de Pez, full of rich ripe black fruits, traces of exotic spices of cinnamon and saffron from the heat of the summer, and brilliant value if looking for personality and appellation signature in St Estèphe.
