2008 - Chateau Les Ormes de Pez

"The strongest effort from this estate in over two decades, the dense ruby/purple-tinged 2008 reveals plenty of structure and tannin as well as gorgeously rich, pure blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with hints of minerals and underbrush. This full, dense St.-Estephe will benefit from several years of bottle age, and should evolve over the following 15 years." -The Wine Advocate, 89-91 pts.
"Crushed blueberry and blackberry aromas follow through to a full body, with silky tannins and a caressing finish. A nicely crafted wine for the vintage." -Wine Spectator, 87-90 pts.
