Chateau Saint-Pierre Pomerol 2020 i trækasse

“94-95 points. It's very well done." – Bettane & Desseauve

“93-95 points. Continues the excellent trend of previous years…” - La Revue du Vin de France

“94 points. 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.” – Antonio Galloni

“The vineyard is located in good terroir. In fact, you can see the chateau and vineyards from Chateau La Fleur Petrus” – Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Stor Pomerol fra en af distriktets helt store årgange... Trods den nærmest perfekte beliggenhed i hjertet af Pomerol har Château Saint Pierre med sin 3 hektar firemærkestore enkeltmark alt for længe fløjet under radaren.

Nu leverer det skammeligt oversete slot dog en anmelderrost topkvalitet, der sammenholdt med nabo-rivalernes opskruede priser gør vinen til lidt af et røverkøb i eksklusive Pomerol.

Saint-Pierre, der har tilhørt familien Lavaux siden 1940’erne, er velsignet med en udsøgt beliggenhed nær hundedyre navne som Château La Fleur-Petrus, Petit Village og Vieux Château Certan. 

Og med verdenskendte Stéphane Derenoncourt og Frederic Massie i kælderen fremtrylles denne fantastisk silkeagtige, udsøgt frugtlækre og smukt strukturerede Pomerol.

87 % Merlot og 13 % Cabernet Franc forkæles mestendels 15 måneder på 225 liter franske barriquefade, heraf 60 %  nye, mens en mindre procentdel af vinen modner på amfora.

Kun årgangens absolut bedste druer finder vej til denne Grand Vin, mens de næstbedste går til andenvinen "Cuvée II du Château Saint-Pierre".

Ved køb af 6 flasker leveres vinen i original trækasse.

Anmeldelser af Château Saint-Pierre Pomerol 2020 OWC

94-95/100 Bettane & 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."

93-95/100 La 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."

94/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous
“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.”

93/100 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.”

93/100 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.”

93/100 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."

93/100 Alexandre Ma

92/100 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.”

92/100 Jeb Dunnuck
“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.”
