Critic reviews
"The 2022 Ormes de Pez offers up an exotic, aromatic bouquet of sweet red fruit compote and flowers, followed by a medium-bodied palate with a rich, soft attack that segues into a somewhat tannic, ephemeral finish. It's a solid, modern-styled Saint-Estèphe."
William Kelley, March 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2022 Ormes de Pez, aged in 45% new oak, has a very perfumed and pure bouquet featuring black cherry, raspberry, cedar and iodine scents. Perhaps it needs a little more Saint Estèphe character to filter through? The palate is medium-bodied and well balanced, with grainy tannins and a core of black fruit mixed with cracked black pepper and a pinch of sea salt. There is pleasing sapidity and a touch of graphite lingering on the Pauillac-styled aftertaste. This is very fine."

"51% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Cask sample. Restrained dark- and red-fruit nose. Good mid-palate weight and extract. Firm tannic frame. Powerful but misses a little freshness."
