"A Saint-Estèphe at this price is a bargain!"

On one of the highest points in the commune of Saint-Estèphe, in a place called "St-Corbian," lies Château Morin. Owned by Château de Pez since 2005, it benefits from a beautifully exposed terroir with maximum sunshine and a microclimate conducive to great wines. It's no surprise that this label is renowned for its refinement and deliciousness. One of the best value for money wines in the prestigious Saint-Estèphe appellation!

Review and opinion by Mr. MATHIEU W. Published on 11/11/2023

Cherry red with a ruby core. On the nose, dark forest fruits, earthy, vegetal, undergrowth, roots. Needs air. On the palate, lots of juicy forest fruits and red berries, a pleasant hint of sweetness from the ripe fruit, iron, herbs, nicely present tannins that provide grip and tension. A fleshy structure throughout. Medium body and finish. In short, I say "yes, please" to this elegant wine. Score: 16/20
