97 Jane Anson
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.Jane Anson16th February 2022

The 2016 Saint-Pierre (Saint-Julien) has a serious bouquet with ample blackberry, cedar and sous-bois scents, beautifully integrated oak and real harmony. The harmony translates across to the palate, impressive grip, quite peppery in style, with a very linear, strict but compelling finish. Just getting started... Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting. Neal Martin16th April 2026

Tasted blind. Earlier maturing than some. Nice wine for early drinking. Everything in its place but not one of the most concentrated. (JR)Jancis Robinson23rd January 2020
