Tasting notes
The 2010 Ormes de Pez is a deep ruby, offering up notes of vibrant blackberries, blueberries and a hint of cedar, followed by rich and expressive flavours, notably mocha notes on the mid palate. This is a wonderful, seductive Ormes de Pez, with incredible density, power and depth. Yield 44 hl/ha, as hail destroyed some of the crop. Good value - the wines can often be found at below 30 Euros. asianpalate.com

Les Ormes de Pez - From the seam technical team as Chateau Lynch Bages in Pauillac, blending 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot produced a deeply colored wine with scents of stone, cassis and coffee bean. With round tannins and a soft entry, the wine finishes with sweet cassis and black cherry flavors, supple textures and freshness. winecellarinsider.com
A wine with lots of flesh and chewy tannins. Full and round, with a lovely texture and finish. Long. These guys are on a roll here. Cazes family of Lynch-Bages. 57 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 34 percent Merlot, 7 percent Cabernet Franc and 2 percent Petit Verdot. jamessuckling.com
Superb concentration of very ripe fruit, lots of richness and depth, will be very impressive. Drink 2016-28. Steven Spurrier, decanter.com
About the producer
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.
