2010 Château Ormes de Pez, St Estèphe, Bordeaux

Ch. Ormes de Pez was a stand-out wine in 2010, with a generous, vivid fruit and glossy mouthfeel perfectly balanced alongside the classic St Estephe character and structure. It is starting to drink well now, but will be an excellent addition to your cellar for very pleasurable drinking over the coming years.

Apart from a very few exceptions, we have struggled with St Estèphe as a commune this year, with many wines suffering from its usual ‘ungenerous, mean, tight’ characters. Throw that script out of the window with this wine though, it is glossy and glamorous but with a classic St Estèphe style. This is a cellar must-have and will be a bargain within the anticipated madness.
