Chateau Ormes de Pez St-Estephe 2019 750ml
The Wine Advocate | RP 90
Published: Apr 7, 2022
The 2019 Ormes de Pez exhibits generous aromas of sweet berry fruit, rose petals and pencil shavings, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively and seamless palate that's bright and integrated, with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit, fine tannins and a saline finish. Produced by the Cazes family of Chateau Lynch-Bages, this is invariably one of the most charming, friendly wines of Saint-Estephe.

This shows lots of spice, such as cloves and nutmeg, together with dark berries and cherries and some plums. it'sstructured and relatively dense, with lovely length and beauty. Needs time to open and come together. 50% merlot, 40% cabernet sauvignon with cabernet franc and petit verdot. Lovely now. Try after 2024.

This wine especially reflects the solar aspects of 2019, more broad than linear in its rich and open-knit expression of jammy fruit. Some hints of southern France give this wine a warm and welcoming aspect, but I like the underlying tannic finesse with subtle expressions of graphite and wet stone.
