Château Graves de Pez

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet and Merlot blend from the Médoc's gravelly north.

Château Graves de Pez sits in Saint-Estèphe, the northernmost appellation of the Médoc, where gravelly soils and a maritime climate shape wines of structure and depth. The estate produces a Saint-Estèphe built on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot—a blend that captures the region's signature power and aging potential. Saint-Estèphe itself is known for darker, more muscular expressions than its southern Médoc neighbors, and this wine reflects that character: firm tannins, earthy undertones, and the mineral grip that comes from the terroir. Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Wine Spectator have rated the Saint-Estèphe, recognizing its balance of ripe fruit and structural complexity. The wine demands time in bottle and rewards patience with the kind of evolution that defines serious Bordeaux.
