Its vineyards occupy approximately 40 hectares in northern Saint-Estèphe, one of the Médoc’s most structured and distinctive appellations. Gravelly parcels suit Cabernet Sauvignon particularly well because they drain quickly and retain warmth, while cooler sandy-clay soils provide ideal conditions for Merlot. The estate is certified Haute Valeur Environnementale Level 3 and harvests its grapes by hand. The 2023 growing season required careful vineyard work as alternating rain, heat, and water stress challenged the vines, but September rain helped the Cabernet varieties complete ripening. Interestingly, Merlot makes up the majority of this vintage, giving the typically structured Saint-Estèphe profile added roundness and generosity. Each parcel is vinified separately before the final blend is assembled. The wine then ages for 16 months in French oak barrels, 45% of which are new. The result combines Saint-Estèphe’s classic structure with vibrant fruit, polished tannins, and a little more immediate charm than the appellation’s reputation might suggest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rvhead\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"colr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling: 92 Points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAromas of dark plums, violets, frozen strawberries and dark cherries.

Saint-Estèphe lies toward the northern end of the Médoc and is traditionally known for deeply structured wines with strong tannins, dark fruit, and excellent aging potential. At Ormes de Pez, the vineyard’s combination of Garonne gravel and sandy clay allows both Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to excel. Cabernet benefits from the warm, free-draining gravel, while Merlot performs particularly well in the cooler clay-influenced parcels.

Cabernet Franc contributes perfume and freshness, while Petit Verdot adds color, spice, and additional backbone. Harvesting is done by hand, and vineyard management emphasizes sustainable practices and long-term soil health. The wine matured for 16 months in French oak, including 45% new barrels, which adds structure and spice while allowing the concentrated fruit to remain dominant.
