Ormes de Pez, the expertise of the Cazes Family
Château Ormes de Pez belongs to the Médoc landscape since the 18th century. Located West of Saint-Estèphe and bordering the hamlet of Pez, the estate owes its name to a magnificent grove of elm trees, which no longer exists today. Château Ormes de Pez is the second property – after Château Lynch-Bages – acquired by the Cazes family in 1939.
The vineyard extends over two distinct terroirs: the Cabernets thrive on the gravelly parcels composed of quartz and rolled pebbles whereas Merlot is best-suited to the cooler, sandy-clay parcels. With a distinctive harmonious spicy character, Château Ormes de Pez is true to its terroir. Wine lovers appreciate its opulence, elegance and well-rounded structure. Its powerful, rich and excellent tannic backbone allows graceful ageing.
Vintage 2024 : a vintage shaped by resilience.
After a mild, rainy winter and a demanding spring, the warm but moderate summer allowed for slow, balanced ripening. Precise harvesting delivered healthy, aromatic grapes. 2024 reveals a harmonious wine, true to the Ormes de Pez style.
Tasting Notes:
Bright robe with deep color. Elegant, fruity nose. The palate is smooth and fresh, with silky tannins and a creamy texture. A wine of finesse and intensity, with a suave, lingering finish and strong ageing potential.
