Description

A harmonious Saint-Estèphe red wine characterised by the vintage’s freshness

The estate

Founded in the 18th century, Château Ormes de Pez is located in the Médoc, in the Saint-Estèphe appellation. Owned by the Cazes family since 1939, Château Ormes de Pez has undergone major renovations and modernisation of both the tools and the vineyard. The estate takes its name from "pez" meaning "peace" in local dialect, as well as from the elm trees that existed on the estate before they almost disappeared from Europe due to a disease.

The wines of Château Ormes de Pez are made with the same care and attention as those of Château Lynch-Bages, a Cru Classé in Pauillac, also owned by the Cazes family. Reflecting the typical style of Saint-Estèphe, the wines of Château Ormes de Pez combine a gourmet taste and brightness of fruit with a fleshy texture and a powerful body that promise many years of ageing.

The vineyard

Located in the north of the commune of Saint-Estèphe, the vineyard of Château Ormes de Pez extends over 40 hectares of vines planted on two distinct terroirs. Here are the famous Garonne gravels, gravelly plots on quartz and pebble soils on which the Cabernets blossom perfectly. The terroir of Château Ormes de Pez is also marked by the presence of sandy-clay plots which are cooler and favourable to Merlot. The vines are 35 years old on average.

Winemaking and ageing

The juices are vinified in the traditional way for 20 days before beginning their malolactic fermentation. The wines are then placed in barrels to be aged in wood (45% new barrels) for 16 months.

Blend

Château Ormes de Pez 2022 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (39%), Merlot (51%), Cabernet Franc (8%) and Petit Verdot (2%).
