2015 Chateau Les Ormes de Pez, Cru Grand Bourgeois, St. Estephe (12 x Bottle)

France Bordeaux St. Estephe

The 2015 Ormes de Pez is impeccable. Dark, pliant and inviting, the 2015 has much to recommend it. Smoke, graphite, licorice, lavender, herb and licorice nuances add complexity to this dark, virile Saint-Estèphe. All the elements are very nicely balanced. I would prefer to drink the 2015 over the next decade or so. I suspect the tannins will always remain a bit chunky, but the 2015 has so much to recommend it.

Vinous

The 2015 Les Ormes de Pez is an attractive Saint-Estèphe. Black cherry, plum, graphite, herbs, licorice and menthol add nuance throughout, but the 2015 shows the mid-weight personality that is typical of the vintage in Saint-Estèphe. I would prefer to drink the 2015 young, while the fruit retains its freshness.

Vinous

The 2015 Les Ormes de Pez has a refined bouquet of wild strawberry and cranberry notes, touches of oyster shell, a subtle estuarine influence that becomes accentuated with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin, fresh and quite linear in style with correct finish that just lacks the flesh that would render this more enjoyable. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
