JAMES SUCKLING: "A beautiful Pez with a solid core of fruit and creamy, refined tannins. It’s complex with plenty of blackcurrant, graphite, lead-pencil and nutmeg flavors. Linear and polished texture. Very precise and defined. Better than 2022."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2023 de Pez confirms the progress taking place at this address. As readers may remember, this estate has now been fully restructured and serves as something of a research and development laboratory for its sibling, Pichon Lalande, and director Nicolas Glumineau and his team have been working to bring more precision and purity to the wine. Offering up aromas of cassis, violets and pencil shavings, framed by nicely integrated new oak, it's medium to full-bodied, polished and suave, with a layered core of sweet, vibrant fruit framed by ripe, powdery tannins."

FALSTAFF: „Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Rote Herzkirschen, frische Zwetschken, Mandarinenzesten, helles Nugat ist unterlegt. Mittlerer Körper, rotbeerige Frucht, reife Tannine, gute Frische, ein lebendiger Speisenbegleiter."
