This prestigious château is known for producing full-bodied and structured red wines that embody the power and elegance typical of Saint-Estèphe. The Magnum (1.5 litre) presentation of Château de Pez not only offers a richer and more complex tasting experience thanks to the enhanced aging potential of the larger volume of wine, but is also an excellent option for special occasions, allowing you to share wine with a larger group of friends and family.
The Château de Pez vineyard covers approximately 39 hectares, planted mainly with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, followed by smaller quantities of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The characteristic terroir of Saint-Estèphe, with its soils rich in gravel and clay, gives the wine a remarkable tannic structure and a deep aromatic complexity, with an impeccable balance between power and finesse.
Winemaking at Château de Pez follows traditional practices, with an emphasis on rigorous selection of grapes and aging in French oak barriques to enrich the wine with further nuances of flavor and aroma. This meticulous process helps create a wine that is both approachable in its youth and capable of evolving beautifully over the years.
Visually, the wine has a deep ruby red color. On the nose, Château de Pez expresses a wide range of intense aromas, which include ripe red and black fruits, floral and vegetal notes, and accents of spices, tobacco and chocolate, the result of elegant aging in wood. In the mouth, the wine reveals a rich tannic structure, well integrated with the acidity and fruit, leading to a long and persistent finish, with a pleasant complexity and refinement typical of the best Saint-Estèphe wines.
Château de Pez in Magnum format is ideal for accompanying red meat dishes, such as roasts and steaks, game and mature cheeses. The presentation in Magnum, in addition to offering advantages in terms of aging, makes this wine a perfect choice for celebrations and festive occasions, where the wine becomes the protagonist of the table, sharing the richness of the Bordeaux winemaking tradition with friends and family.
In conclusion, Château de Pez represents an excellent exemplar of the character and quality of Saint-Estèphe wines, offering a tasting experience that celebrates the balance between tradition and innovation in the heart of the Médoc. The choice of the Magnum format further enhances these qualities, making it a treasure wine for special occasions.
