Description
An Aromatic and Delicate Second Wine from Pomerol
The estate
Located in the heart of the Pomerol appellation, a stone's throw from Saint-Jean Church, the Château Saint-Pierre is an essential reference of the appellation. Château Saint-Pierre is renowned for its great red wines from Pomerol, crafted with the attention of Stéphane Derenoncourt and Frédéric Massie, both world-renowned consulting oenologists. Silky, full-bodied and structured, the wines of Château Saint-Pierre are undoubtedly long-keeping Pomerol.
The wine
Following in the footsteps of its elder, II du Château Saint-Pierre is a Pomerol wine offering more immediate accessibility than the estate's Grand Vin.
This Second Wine comes from a 1.4-hectare vineyard out of the 3 hectares of the estate. The vines, averaging 20 years old, are located on the top of the appellation's plateau, on predominantly gravelly-sandy soils.

Hand harvesting. Fermentation in thermo-regulated stainless steel and concrete vats. Maceration for 2 to 3 weeks. Barreling after racking. Aging for 15 months in barrels (50% new, 50% one wine).
