2009 Ch. Saint Pierre, St. Julien

Ch. Saint Pierre, St. Julien
We’d already heard good things on the grapevine about the 2009 Ch. Saint Pierre and we were delighted not to be disappointed at our tasting. The enticing nose of warm red and black fruit leads to a palate of juicy, ripe mulberries with a lovely kick of white pepper at the back, whilst its freshness that counterbalances the sweetness perfectly. With purity to the fore, melting tannins and a resounding, persistent finish, the sheer class of this wine suggests this could be a property to watch.Château Saint-Pierre

Black red, elegantly concentrated blackcurrant fruit, quite leafy and lifted with a touch of licquorice spice, both floral and a little exotic, lovely rich, ripe fruit and good future.

Very deep dark crimson – glossy colour. Aromatic and lifted. A little bit brutal in its make-up but very ambitious and introvert. Solid and dry on the finish. Very drying finish.

Ch. Saint Pierre, St. Julien
The all-time greatest wine I have ever tasted from Saint-Pierre, this estate, the smallest of the grand cru classes of St.-Julien, has an opaque purple color and a spectacular nose of subtle charcoal, creme de cassis, blackberry, and incense. Full-bodied, with striking intensity and flamboyantly rich, exuberant flavors bursting with extract, the St. Pierre has no hard edges, but rather massive, incredibly well-endowed blockbuster style, which should prove to be monumental. Give it 6-8 years to take on more definition and calm down, but this is a 30- to 40-year wine. Bravo!

Sultanas and subtle spices on the nose. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and excellent fruit concentration. Long and succulent. Stylish stuff.
