The 2024 Ormes de Pez is a very pretty, expressive Saint-Estèphe. Strong floral, savory and earthy elements abound. Bright red-toned fruit, spice, cedar and new leather lend notable punch. This is a very fine vintage for Ormes de Pez. Tasted two times.

Really fragranced on the nose. Lively and clean, this has a gorgeously smooth texture with plump fruit but a crystalline core of minerality that elongates the wine and gives a salty bite on the finish. A little tension still but this works. Easy to enjoy this, balanced still with a kick of power and minty clove aspect. Nice succulence. Great!! 5% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Ageing 45% new oak for 16 months in French oak barrels. 3.61pH. Tasted twice.
