1970 | Chateau Ormes de Pez | Saint Estephe Medoc

Situated in Saint-Estèphe, Ormes de Pez is a historical château that has been part of the Médoc landscape since the 18th century. In 1940, the property was acquired by the Cazes family, who also owns Pauillac’s Lynch-Bages. The château comprises 35 hectares of vineyards planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The grapes are always hand-harvested and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats. This 1970 vintage is now a fully mature wine, exuding notes of leather, forest floor and mushrooms.
