Saint Estèphe is the northernmost major wine area in the Médoc, bordering Pauillac and close to Chateau Lafite Rothschild. The wines from Ormes de Pez are powerful yet characterised by their harmonious structure. They are indulgent, pleasurable and combine a smooth, fleshy texture with the distinctive elegance of a Saint-Estèphe. Made using the traditional grape varieties, these wines are rich, full-bodied and generous. They are made of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon and complemented by a significant amount of Merlot for a combination of longevity and smoothness. The resulting wines are rich and fruity with a tannic undertone. They are seductive in their youth and develop their finesse after a few years of bottle age
