A faint, black fruit nose of juniper and black ollive. Very rich. flashy almost and loaded wih fruit. Just a touch dry towards the longish finish but good quality.

The 2011 Les Ormes de Pez has an impressive bouquet, beautifully defined, not intense but precise, earthy black fruit mixed with tar and freshly rolled tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins. Exquisite balance, not complex, but so much freshness with the most tension revealed on the finish. This was a bit of a turn up for the books and trumped some of Saint-Estèphe's more auspicious residents. Tasted blind at the annual 10-Year-On tasting.
Tasted blind. Intense crimson. Rather soft and un St-Estèphe-like. Good fruit and friendliness. A solid effort with the tannins kicking in only on the very end. (JR)
Blackish crimson. Rich, dark fruited and a little floral on the nose. Vanilla and spice too. Much more savoury on the palate. Chalky, dry tannins. A bit flat-footed and abrupt on the finish.(JH)

The Cazes family – owners of Lynch-Bages – added this Saint-Estèphe Cru Bourgeois estate to their portfolio in 1940, just one year after they purchased Lynch-Bages. The property comprises 32 hectares of vines in the north of the appellation, close to the village of Pez.
