Château de Pez

Der beeindruckende 2016er de Pez knüpft nahtlos an den großen Vorgängerjahrgang 2015 an. Stoffig, viel Saft, unterlegt von feiner Würze, sehr stimmig, gut balanciert und lang. Richtig gut! Robert Parker: „The 2016 de Pez appears to be benefitting from a long-term replanting program at the estate. This is a blend of 53% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3.5% Petit Verdot and 1.5% Cabernet Franc. The IPT is quite high at 80, and there is 13.9% alcohol. It has a pure and comely bouquet with black cherries and blackcurrant pastilles, just a touch of crushed violets that emerge with time. The palate is really quite lovely: very well balanced with a fine line of acidity, quite saline in the mouth, perhaps the finest tannic structure that I have encountered during many years of tasting this Saint Estèphe, with a long persistent finish. Maybe this is the "dark horse" of the appellation this year. Ein St.-Estephe – Klassiker mit großem Potential.
