Château Ormes de Pez, Saint-Estèphe 2021 14% and these are a fineThe 2021 Ormes de Pez is matured in 45% new oak. This has a fragrant nose, very well defined, in fact, perhaps more sophisticated than the Haut Batailley at the moment. The palate is medium bodied with sappy black fruit, a little powdery in texture, touches of graphite towards the almost Pauillac like finish. A stylish Saint Estphe, this is recommended. 9193 100 Neal Martin, vinous. com, May 2022 Medium bodied with a firm tannin frame and pretty notes
