I love how this has come together since En Primeur, and this is well worth a case purchase. It’s going to deliver the goods any time over the coming two decades or more.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 Vinous Review Date: 01\/25\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2022 de Pez is a stellar wine. Plum, blood orange, exotic spice, cedar and new leather fill out the layers. Technical Director Nicolas Glumineau has increased the focus at Pez through stricter selection in the field and greater attention in the winery—something made easier with the new cellar. Among other things, the team also lengthened élevage to 18 months from the more typical 12-15 months. The 2022 is a major step forward at Pez.

Brilliant wine, absolutely one to look out for, has steely minerality that offsets the plump fruit character and intense tannic structure, this is concentrated but understated, everthing in proportion. First time on the Place this year, as before it was sold via an exclusivity. First vintage with new cellar also. Tasted twice, this is a buy. 26hl\/h yield, half of usual, 50% new oak for ageing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CWH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47614933926120,"sku":null,"price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0553\/4901\/8807\/files\/20250821_134730.jpg?v=1755803990","url":"https:\/\/shop.claytonwinehouse.com\/products\/22-chateau-de-pez-st-estephe-95jd-94v-95wa-95ws","provider":"Clayton Winehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
