Wednesday, January 25, 2012 - The 2009 St. Pierre is very pretty, with perfumed fruit and a touch of mineral - a slightly fuller feeling nose than some of the other St. Juliens. Nice stoniness on the palate, with slightly plummy acidity. Almost tastes more like some of the Pauillacs from this tasting, in its combination of fresh acidity and controlled ripeness. 93-94+. A great under-the-radar choice that has pleased me in prior vintages.
