2005 Ormes De Pez 75CL

Although Lynch-Bages is without a doubt the flagship of the Domaines Jean-Michel Cazes, Ormes de Pez belongs to the Medoc landscape since the 18th century. Purchased by Jean-Charles Cazes in the wake of the Second World War, the history of these two estates is closely linked.

At the time of the French Revolution, the current property was called the Domaine de Pez (meaning ''peace'' in the local dialect). As for the elms (''Ormes'') that have appeared on the bottle labels since 2003, they grew on the grounds of the Domaine until this mythical variety of trees ceased to grow in Europe in the 1950s.
