Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Saint Pierre 4eme Cru 2016

97
/100

En frugtbombe med fyldigt træ. Hvis den er integreret efter mere end 10 år, hvilket er ret sandsynligt, så vurderer jeg den for lavt nu. Et monster med potentiale til at blive en enorm vin. En slags Lascombes fra Saint Julien, kraft og energi, allerede overvældende!

Suckling om: Chateau Saint Pierre 4eme Cru

-- Suckling: This is fantastic, offering lots of fresh tobacco and blackcurrants and undertones of hazelnuts and chocolate. Full-bodied with firm and chewy tannins, yet ever so polished and refined. One of the most structured St. Pierre’s in years. A blend of 73 per cent cabernet sauvignon, 21 per cent merlot and six per cent cabernet franc. Try from 2024. 96/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Saint Pierre 4eme Cru

The most effortlessly brilliant vintage in St Julien, and Saint Pierre is right up there with the best of examples you can find. Smoky and sculpted, still chewy tannins, firm but confident, liqourice and campfire smoke that displays welcome and generosity - makes you want to pull up a chair next to the embers and grab a friend to share it with. The fruits are brambled hedegrow and crumbled blackberry, with touches of bioche and cream, along with bitter chocolate that adds definition. Mineral tingle to the acidities, and another wash of smoke as it opens. 50% new oak, harvest September 29 to October 17. 97/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Saint Pierre 4eme Cru

-- Jeb Dunnuck: Coming from 50-year-old vines and a blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Château Saint-Pierre (Saint-Julien) is in the same ballpark as the 2015 yet shows a slightly more elegant, classic feel, which is very much in the style of the vintage. Beautiful notes of crème de cassis, black raspberries, crushed rocks, tobacco, and lead pencil shavings as well as some smoky notes with time in the glass all flow to a deep, full-bodied, concentrated Saint-Julien that has fine tannin, flawless balance and integration, no hard edges, and a great finish. This brilliant wine from winemaker Jean-Louis Triaud will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and keep for 25-30 years. 96/100

Saint Pierre

Saint Pierre-vingården ligger på det bedste terroir i Saint Julien og har kun tilhørt topgruppen i appellationen siden 1990'erne. Der er blevet investeret store summer i vinmarkerne og kælderen. I dag er Saint Pierre-ejendommen altid blandt de ti bedste Saint Juliens. En næsten arketypisk Saint...
