Discreetly nestled in the heart of the Saint-Julien appellation, Château Saint-Pierre reveals a nectar of unsuspected charm. Archives dating back to 1693 attest to the existence of Domaine, which was then called Serançan. It was bought by the Baron de Saint-Pierre during the reign of Louis XV, and as a result of several successions, it was broken up and dispersed.
Then, in 1982, with passion and tenacity, Henri Martin reconstituted Château as it was known in 1855, the year it was awarded the title of Fourth Grand Cru Classé in the Médoc wine classification formalized for the Paris World Fair.
The Château Saint-Pierre occupies a 17-hectare vineyard, planted with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The soils are gravel of Günzian origin, with sandy-clay subsoils. The wines are aged for 14 to 16 months in oak barrels, 50% of which are new.
The Second wine of Domaine is named Esprit de Saint-Pierre.
The Château Saint-Pierre is recognized as a perfect representative of the great wines of Saint-Julien: complex, round and deliciously aromatic.
A perfect representative of the St-Julien appellation, Le Château Saint-Pierre, 4ème Grand Cru Classé, seduces with its typical style. With its garnet-red color with purple highlights, Saint-Pierre 2016 exudes intense red fruit, spice and woody aromas on the nose. The attack on the palate is fresh, and the body is powerful and full. The fruit aromas are fully expressed, with a gourmet touch. The finely chiselled tannins are perfectly integrated. The slight liveliness on the finish promises magnificent ageing potential.
