The 2021 Saint-Pierre (Pomerol) offers up aromas of cherries, licorice, sweet spices and loamy soil, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and nicely concentrated palate that's framed by ripe, powdery tannins. This three-hectare estate consists of three parcels: one by Vieux Chateau Certain, another by the village church and a third by Rouget.

From a three-hectare parcel between Petit Village and Vieux Chateau 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.
