Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
The 2021 Ormes de Pez is deep, plush, layered and very expressive. Dark cherry, plum and spice open first, followed by bright floral and savory accents that lend vibrancy. There is a bit of graininess in the tannin, but hopefully élevage will polish some of those contours. Score: 90 - 92 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2024-2036 31 May 2022 |

Medium-bodied with a firm tannin frame and pretty notes of pencil lead, blackberries and some walnuts. Hints of chocolate orange, too. Structured and a little chewy, with perfumed character. Juicy. 49% merlot, 40% cabernet sauvignon, 6% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot. Score: 92 - 93 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 01 May 2022 |

The 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-Estèphe, this is recommended. 13.13% alcohol. Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2027-2055 01 May 2022 |

The 2021 Ormes de Pez exhibits aromas of cassis, licorice, warm spices and toasty new oak, followed by a medium-bodied, lively and nicely concentrated palate built around rich, powdery tannins that will round out with further maturation in barrel. Produced by the Cazes family of Château Lynch-Bages, it shows promise. Score: 90 - 91 William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 29 April 2022 |

This has punch and mouth-watering juicy acidities. Cheerful, enticiting, blackberry and loganberry fruits, and all is in place to add on further depth over ageing. There is rusticity that speaks of the vintage, but it is charming and this is easy to recommend. Another great vintage at Ormes de Pez, one of the value wines of the year. 45% new oak.

Managed by the team at Lynch-Bages, the 2021 Château Ormes De Pez comes from a 40-hectare vineyard in Saint-Estèphe. Medium to full-bodied, it has ripe tannins, good depth of fruit, and classic notes of darker fruits, loamy earth, tobacco leaf, and chalky minerality.
