Created in the 15th century, de Pez is the oldest domaine in Saint Estèphe. The Pontac family gave Pez its vineyards. The property was purchased by Champagne Louis Roederer in 1995. Deep red with fresh fruit aromas and floral spice. Dry firm tannins with good structure allows for further aging. Savory on the finish with earthy mineral, needs decanting. — 10 years ago

Светло-лимонный. В аромате сладкие яблоко и груша, лимонный мармелад, сдоба в развитии. Среднее тело, высокая кислотность. Во вкусе засахаренный лимон. Полусладкое. Долгое послевкусие. — 12 years ago

I couldn't resist opening this next to the 2006 Roederer Brut Nature "Stark" as they are the only two assemblage style bio dynamic Champagnes that I know of. The Sapience has quiet power and persistence that puts it in a class by itself while maintaining grace and transparency on the level of the best Saar wines. A wower. — 12 years ago
