Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

A blend of 54% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2020 Château Ormes De Pez offers up a great perfume of red and black currants, sweet tobacco, sandalwood, and spice. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, with ripe tannins and good overall balance, it's another terrific 2020 that offers pleasure even today yet will evolve for 15+ years if well stored.

About the Producer

About the Producer

Château Ormes de Pez, a Cru Bourgeois of Saint-Estèphe, is a historic name in the Médoc whose origins date back to the 18th century. It was then known as Domaine de Pez, a term meaning "peace" in an ancient local dialect. The Cazes family, already at the helm of the prestigious Château Lynch-Bages, acquired this beautiful estate in 1940, breathing new life into its wines. Legend has it that the name "Ormes" comes from the majestic elm trees that once graced the property. Today, Château Ormes de Pez produces red wines that elegantly reflect the unique terroir of Saint-Estèphe. Ormes de Pez Saint-Estèphe red wines are distinguished by their seductive aromatic profile and ample texture, offering notes of black fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry, enhanced by silky tannins. These wines are regularly praised for their harmonious balance and aging potential. A sure bet in the Saint-Estèphe appellation, promising refined evolution in the cellar. Among the most closely followed vintages is Château Les Ormes-de-Pez, a useful benchmark for understanding the estate's identity. At Château Ormes de Pez, this consistency between terroir, style, and high standards explains the enduring attachment of wine lovers.
