James Suckling: A medium-bodied red with fine tannins and plenty of spice and fruit, with a real sense of St.-Estephe. Juicy and long. Delicious already for barrel. A blend of 58% merlot, 35% cabernet sauvignon, 4% cabernet franc and 3% petit verdot."

Jeb Dunnuck: A Merlot-heavy blend of 58% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot that's resting in 20% new oak, the 2025 Château Ormes De Pez is a little gem of a wine that should be snatched up by readers. Ripe currants, plums, smoky tobacco, and chocolate all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, round, supple, and charming, with ample mid-palate volume and length."

Saftig, elegant, rote Kirschen, feine Tannine, frisch strukturiert, mineralisch, verfügt über gute Länge und Potenzial."

Jane Anson: Plump and dark fruits, a little sappy and full of vivacity, cherry pit, balanced juices, orange peel, liquorice, plenty of dark colour, good lift. 3.64 pH. 20% new oak. Harvest September 9 to 22, one of earliest harvests since 1989. 40hl/ha yields,"

Decanter: Lovely fragrance on the nose, so floral and alive, really pronounced aromatics. Brisk acidity makes the first mark, juicy strawberries and raspberries but there’s tension too driving this wine in one straight line. Tight but lovely detail, fine tannins, a firm, salty grip to the finish. A little lean but this will fill out. Liquorice, tobacco, bitter chocolate and flint. 3% Petit Verdot completes the blend."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 Ormes de Pez skips out of the glass with bright, cheery notes of black raspberries and red currants, followed by hints of cedar chest, lavender, crushed rocks, and bouquet garni. The medium-bodied palate is silky and refreshing with vibrant red and black fruit and a fragrant finish. Very pretty! The blend is 58% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. It has a pH of 3.64 and the alcohol is 13.2%."
