Chateau Pierre 1er (Futures Pre-Sale) 2022

Professional Ratings

• 95 James Suckling
  A solid Pierre with chocolate, hazelnut, berry and orange peel aromas and flavors. Full to medium body. Juicy tannins and fruity. Poised and fresh finish.
  Barrel Sample: 94-95

  Ripe, dark black and blue fruits on the nose with perfumed flecks too. Supple and lively, on the leaner side, straight and focussed with purity to the red fruits. Quite a tannic hold, fine but full and grippy, with a liquorice and graphite aspect that coats the entire mouth and shuts down some of the fruit enjoyment at this stage. Nicely constructed with clear concentration but the tannins are making the most of their time in the limelight right now. Juicy, cool and clean though with good freshness. Tasted twice and both times between 91-92 points.
