Description

From the oldest Domaine in Saint-Estephe, this second label from Chateau de Pez quite impressive.  A wonderful balance of soft red fruits and classic Bordeaux earth. A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot and a somewhat unexpected 12% Petit Verdot from younger vines. The vines lend strawberry, raspberry, red plum, leather and tobacco.  Both barrel and grape tannins give the wine a little bit of an “old-world” gritty texture.
