Château Saint-Pierre is a 4ème Cru Classé estate in the heart of St-Julien, Bordeaux. Produced from mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with lesser parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the wines are renowned for their wonderful fragrance but also their deep, cassis-driven fruit. The 2006 displays beautiful herbal and graphite character mingled with cassis and liquorice notes.
91 Vinous
Ruby-red. Sexy aromas and flavors of black- and redcurrant, menthol, licorice and nutty oak, lifted by a violet topnote. Supple, classically dry and quite concentrated, with juicy acidity giving cut to the flavors and extending the finish. A sound tannic spine should ensure at least two decades of development in bottle for this very suave Saint-Julien. This has turned out very well.
90 Robert Parker
Tasted at the château, the 2006 Château Saint-Pierre has a ripe blackberry, kirsch, cedar and liquorice-scented bouquet that feels as if it is approaching its drinking plateau. The palate is sweet on the entry with liquorice-tinged black fruit, slightly rustic tannins, quite spicy and peppery towards the finish. There is impressive body to this Saint-Pierre, even though it does not possess the precision that more recent vintages have displayed. Tasted April 2016. - Neal Martin
