Tasting notes
A classic Bordeaux with a refined, balanced profile. The nose opens with blackcurrant, ripe plum, cedar, and subtle floral notes, layered with hints of tobacco and graphite. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with polished tannins, fresh acidity, and flavors of dark berries, cassis, and savory spice. The finish is elegant and persistent, leaving a mineral, slightly earthy impression that reflects its traditional style.

Oenology
Château de Pez is a historic Bordeaux wine estate located in the Saint-Estèphe appellation on the left bank of the Gironde. Its oenology is defined by the classic character of this northern Médoc terroir, where gravel, clay, and limestone soils give structure, freshness, and depth to the wines. The vineyard is typically planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, which brings backbone, tannic power, and aging potential, alongside Merlot for roundness and generosity, with smaller proportions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot depending on the vintage. The winemaking at Château de Pez aims to preserve the purity of fruit and the expression of the terroir. Grapes are carefully selected, vinified with precision, and often aged in oak barrels to refine the tannins and add complexity. The resulting wines are generally firm and elegant in their youth, showing dark berry fruit, cedar, spice, and earthy notes, while developing greater harmony and nuance with bottle age. Château de Pez is known for producing balanced Saint-Estèphe wines with a classic Bordeaux profile: concentrated, structured, and built for aging.
Suggestions for accompaniment
Château de Pez, from Bordeaux, pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, and herb-crusted veal. It also works well with dishes featuring mushrooms, truffles, grilled vegetables, and rich sauces. As accompanying dishes, choose dauphinoise potatoes, gratin, sautéed green beans, glazed carrots, roasted root vegetables, or a wild mushroom risotto. A selection of aged cheeses, especially hard and semi-hard varieties, can also complement its structure and depth.
