2021 Château Les Ormes de Pez, St.-Estèphe
Under the same ownership as Lynch-Bages, 2021 Châteaux Les Ormes de Pez is unlikely to grab as many headlines this year as its illustrious sibling (also launching an impressive new winery), but benefits from the know-how and flare of the Cazes family and is worth following closely. To prove the point, Jane Anson describes 2021 Ormes de Pez as "one of the value wines of the year", scoring it 93 points.
Offered en primeur landing spring 2024. Magnums available, other formats on request.
Producer Profile
Château Les Ormes de Pez, Cru Bourgeois St.-Estèphe
Ormes de Pez has in the past taken reflected glory from Lynch (Haut-Batailley is stealing some of that now). We mustn't forget what a great, all-round wine this is in its own right. A Cru Bourgeois, but with real terroir and the benefit of Cazes investment and know-how, this is a great, affordable expression of classic St.-Estèphe structure, made in a traditional style.
