OWNER´S DESCRIPTION
Dark purple color. Subtle nose of black fruits evolving into notes of cashew, liquorice and cedar. The attack is delicious and silky. The structure i full, with tannins of great definition in purity. Beautiful persistence.

Wine Advocate 92-94/100 : “A strong effort, the 2023 Saint-Pierre unwinds in the glass with aromas of cassis, dark berries and incense, framed by a deft touch of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with good mid-palate density, powdery tannins and lively acids, it’s a classically proportioned Saint-Julien that will age with grace. The blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot”.

James Suckling 94-95/100 : “Very refined and classy, with ultra-fine tannins and blackcurrant and hazelnut character, suggesting very pure fruit and precise picking times. Medium-bodied and chewy, yet caressing”.

Vinous (Antonio Galloni) 93-95/100 : “The 2023 Saint-Pierre (Saint-Julien) is packed with blackberry jam, gravel, lavender, dried herbs, spice and crushed rocks. There’s a ton of character here. Incisive tannins and bright acids pull it all together in style. Give this at least a few years to soften. Tasted two times”.
