James Suckling
Plenty of ripe-plum and walnut aromas with hints of chocolate and leather. Full body, juicy fruit and soft, velvety tannins. Flavorful finish. Hard not to enjoy it now, but wait two or three years for it to soften. Better in 2023.

Wine Spectator
This sports bright damson plum notes along with racy mint and savory hints before giving way to juicy raspberry and cassis accents that fill up the finish. Shows the racy grip of the vintage too. Rating: 89-92 Points

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2016 Pierre 1er is medium garnet-purple colored and delivers scents of kirsch, redcurrants and black cherries with suggestions of roses, powdered cinnamon and fallen leaves. Medium to full-bodied, the palate features a great intensity of spicy red berry flavors with a velvety texture and oodles of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

Jeb Dunnuck
The 2016 Château Pierre 1Er has a serious floral streak as well as almost Graves-like gravelly minerality and underbrush notes. Possessing terrific purity of fruit, an elegant texture, and medium body, drink this outstanding Saint Emilion any time over the coming 10-15 years.
