[Chateau De Pez 2016]

James Suckling rating: 93/100

Robert Parker rating: 92/100

Chateau de Pez was built in the 15th century and is the oldest winery in Saint Estèphe.The Pontac family also created the Haut-Brion wine and handed over its vineyard to Pez. After the French Revolution, the estate was sold as national property and owned by a series of families, before being acquired by Champagne Louis Roederer in 1995.

Chateau De Pez The 2016 de Pez seems to benefit from the estate's long-term replanting program.It has a pure and beautiful floral aroma, with scents of black cherry and blackcurrant candy, and over time, it also carries a hint of crushed violets.The taste is indeed very lovely: very balanced, with delicate acidity, a salty-sweet mouthfeel, and perhaps the best tannin structure I've encountered in Saint-Estèphe wines over the years, with a long and lingering finish.
