Ormes De Pez Saint-Estèphe - Magnum 1,5L, 2023

Ormes de Pez Saint-Estèphe in magnum format is a compelling way to enjoy one of Bordeaux’s classic left-bank styles, offering extra cellar potential and a more graceful evolution in bottle. From the respected Saint-Estèphe appellation, it combines structure, freshness, and depth in a format that is especially well suited to premium cellaring and special occasions.

Tasting Notes
This is typically a dark, concentrated Bordeaux red with a deep ruby to garnet colour, often showing youthful intensity in its first years. On the nose, expect classic Saint-Estèphe notes of blackcurrant, plum, cedar, tobacco, and subtle earthy or graphite nuances, with the magnum format helping preserve aromatic freshness over time. On the palate, the wine is usually full-bodied and firmly structured, with ripe dark fruit supported by well-defined tannins and a fresh, mineral-driven line. Saint-Estèphe’s hallmark is balance between power and elegance, and this wine should reward patience, developing more complexity with age. In magnum, it is well positioned for longer ageing than the standard bottle, making it an excellent candidate for cellararing.

Production
Produced in Saint-Estèphe on Bordeaux’s gravelly and clay-rich soils, the estate benefits from a terroir that naturally encourages depth, structure, and freshness in the finished wine. While specific vintage details are not provided here, wines from this appellation are generally harvested parcel by parcel at optimal ripeness and vinified with a focus on preserving fruit purity, extraction balance, and the firm backbone that defines the region.

Food & Serving
Serve at 16–18°C. This wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, beef fillet, duck, game, and richly flavoured mushroom dishes, as well as mature hard cheeses. Decanting is recommended if enjoyed young, ideally for 1–2 hours, especially in the magnum format if you want to open up the aromatics and soften the tannins.
