Jeb Dunnuck (94)Coming from the Cazes team, the 2019 Château Ormes De Pez is gorgeous and shines in the vintage. Pure crème de cassis, mulberries, leafy herbs, Asian spices, and lead pencil all emerge on the nose, and this medium to full-bodied 2019 has the vintage’s pure, focused, elegant style while staying ripe, supple, and textured. The balance is spot on, and it's going to hit maturity in roughly 8-10 years and have two decades of prime drinking. |

Decanter (93)Blueberry, raspberry and cassis, there is concentration but also juice. Merlot-dominant (following a restructuring of the vineyard to better align grapes with terroir) with bite and freshness. A lovely smoky edge here, this is another successful vintage for Ormes de Pez. 4% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.69ph. 45% new oak. A yield of 42hl/ha which was not as low here as at Lynch Bages because of more clay in the soils, and because the Merlot was less impacted by the drought than the Cabernet Sauvignon. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (93)This has punch and mouth-watering juicy acidities. Cheerful, enticiting, blackberry and loganberry fruits, and all is in place to add on further depth over ageing. There is rusticity that speaks of the vintage, but it is charming and this is easy to recommend. Another great vintage at Ormes de Pez, one of the value wines of the year. 45% new oak. |

Showcasing Alsace's unparalleled ability to produce white wines of distinct character, the Ostertag Pinot Gris Zellberg 2010 is a true embodiment of terroir-expressive winemaking. From the hands of acclaimed wine-grower André Ostertag, this organic and biodynamically-farmed wine is expertly crafted from hand-picked grapes grown on the south-east facing slopes of the Zellberg vineyard. Unique to its geographical origin, this masterpiece stands out with its refined balance of supple roundness, subtle minerality, and vibrant acidity. Displaying a vivid gold hue, the Ostertag Pinot Gris Zellberg 2010 unveils a fragrant bouquet of white peach, pear, honeycomb, and a delicate hint of smoke. On the palate, it conjures underlying nuances of spiced apple, almond, and lingering stony minerality — a testament to the complexity achieved from schist, sandstone, and granite soils. Remarkable for its effortless elegance, this Ostertag creation ensures a lingering finish, unveiling layers of taste that capture the very essence of Alsatian winemaking. |

Vinous (92+)Light-medium yellow. Vibrant, precise aromas of lime, lemon drop, mint oil, white flowers and botanical herbs. Dense, tactile and dry, conveying a strong impression of inner-mouth energy and dusty stony extract. The wine's palate-coating texture and beautifully integrated acidity prevent it from coming off as hard. But this very long grand cru riesling really merits at least seven or eight years of cellaring. Just a touch of sweetness on the back end. A superb vintage for this cuvee |

Jeb Dunnuck (94)The 2009 Pagodes De Cos is a blockbuster that I wish I had more of in the cellar. A blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest mostly Merlot (there’s a small amount of Petit Verdot) brought up in roughly 50% new French oak, its deep purple/plum color is followed by a smorgasbord of black raspberry and kirsch like fruits, spice box, dried flowers and licorice. With a huge mid-palate, sweet, sweet tannin, beautiful purity of fruit, and a great finish, it’s an incredibly sexy, satisfying second wine that will keep for another 10-15 years. |

The most prevalent and recognised or 'international grape' varieties in the world are mostly of French origin. The enduring popularity and respect of French wine has meant that Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvingon, Merlot and many others have been exported and experimented with around the world.
