Chateau Saint-Pierre Pomerol 2020 i trækasse

Antonio Galloni

The 2020 Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) is a powerful, virile wine endowed with terrific depth and tons of character. Super-ripe dark plum, gravel, chocolate, incense and licorice meld together in this plush, explosive Pomerol. There's plenty of tannin, but very good balance as well.

Jean-Marc Quarin

Dark, intense, and purple color. The nose is very aromatic, refined, fruity, subtle, and creamy. Precise in its texture from the moment it enters the mouth, savory in the middle, with a slender body, the wine evolves into a juicy finish with a refined tannic structure and, above all, a very beautiful aromatic length. It's very good. A great success for this vintage.

James Suckling

A velvety-textured red with medium to full body, showing hazelnut, currant and chocolate character. Creamy texture. Delicious finish. Plenty going on here.

Decanter

High-toned, expressive, ripe and perfumed. The fruit is there but laced entirely with grippy tannins, though velvety, and lots of liquorice that dominates the palate though there are nice salty mineral edges to this too. Good acidity keeps the energy but this is a fairly hefty style in terms of flavour concentration. I do like the texture, sleek with well-integrated tannins. Not muscular as it’s linear but the tannic frame is bold and imposing - hold on to for a few years.

I was thrilled to see the 2020 Château Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) show so well as it comes from a terrific terroir and has been a touch erratic in the past (although it's always good). A blend of 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc from vines near Vieux Château Certan and Le Pin, it has a beautiful perfume of darker cherries, currants, chocolate, earthy tobacco, and loamy soil. This carries to a medium to full-bodied Pomerol with fine, polished tannins, a layered, balanced mouthfeel, and a great finish. It's a beautiful 2020 that readers will love. It should evolve for 15 years if well-stored.

Robert Parker

From a three-hectare parcel between Petit Village and Vieux Château Certan, near the village church, comes the 2020 Saint-Pierre (Pomerol), a strong effort that offers up aromas of plums and blackberries mingled with orange rind and toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with polished tannins and a gourmand but nicely balanced profile, aging vines and new plantings of Cabernet Franc are delivering impressive quality.

Bettane et Desseauve

“87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc are combined in a blend where the floral aromatics, marked by violet, and fresh silkiness set the tone. The tannins are both energetic and voluptuous with a beautiful depth. It's very well done."

Revue du Vin de France

”This overlooked wine from the plateau continues the excellent trend of previous years. Offering an expansive, dark, velvety texture, a flavor rich with roasted, spicy, earthy, and also floral nuances, it shows a strong structure in 2020, with powerful tannins that support its framework and ensure a noble evolution over the long term. We very much appreciate its flair and vigor."
