Magnum - Château Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) - Pomerol 2018

Vinous

90-92 / 100

byAntonio Gallonithe5/3/2019

The 2018 Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) is a dark, brooding wine. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, licorice, spice and tobacco, along with the wine's sheer density, convey an impression of virile power. The 2018 is not a shy wine by any means, but it has tons of character. The 2018 is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the first year in which there is Franc in the blend.

Floral, earthy, medium-bodied and on the red plum side of the style range, the wine is soft and mildly showy with a mineral infused, red berry, classic finish.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) features bold scents of baked blackberries, fruitcake and blueberry coulis with hints of raisin cake, garrigue and dusty soil. Full and rich, with a lovely plush texture, it has loads of spicy dried berries flavors and a peppery kick to the finish.
