A dark, brooding wine. Black fruit, gravel, spice, menthol, licorice, and lavender add to an impression of somber intensity. There’s good depth and drive, even if some angular contours remain. As always, Saint-Pierre shows the more brooding side of Saint-Julien. It’s all there in 2021. Drink 2026-2043. —A.G.
