Description

2005 Château Ormes de Pez, St Estèphe, BordeauxCh. Ormes de Pez, St. Estphe is a well known chateau that the Cazes family (Ch. Lynch Bages etc) has given more attention to in recent years. It shows the concentration and balance of 2005, a great year, as well as a sweetness of fruit which gave it real appeal. Tom Cave, Cellar Plan Manager Dec 09 The Jean Michel Cazes estates have had a great year in 2005, and this one is no different. This is benchmark St Estphe, with lots of earthy minerality,

along with some nuttiness

In both cases

This is a blend of over 120 individual wines

It surely has a long and glorious future ahead of it

Mojitos all round

The palate does not disappoint – this is where the “Grande” in Grande Année comes from

harmonious wine of 2005—one of the true stars of 2009

Give this a few years in the cellar to fill out
