The best cru bourgeois of Saint-Julien (it could easily have been classified in 1855), kept by the Saint-Pierre team, even owner, and in very good shape in the last vintages. The Médoc's best value par excellence.

The 2021 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “2021 is no exception, the wine is nicely structured, with notes of red fruit and a nice stretch on very polished tannins. The ageing is discreet. Esprit flatters with its immediate greediness and openness”.

The 2018 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (November 2021): 93/100 “Recent vintages seem to be directing Gloria towards greater elegance and purity. 2018 is very successful in this respect, the wine has very noble fruit and plenty of breed with a breeding that becomes more discreet. Very well-balanced."

The 2017 vintage in the press:
Vinous (A. Galloni - March 2020): 94/100 “Medium in body and full of character, Gloria is one of the highlights of the vintage. Don't miss it.”
Vinous (N. Martin - February 2020): 91/100 “The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, a pretty and understated Gloria. A classic tobacco and bay leaf finish does not quite kick on like other recent vintages. Nevertheless, this is a delicious Saint-Julien that will give 20 years of drinking pleasure"

The 2021 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 94/100 “The vintage continues to surprise us with its new style, much more defined and precise, closer to the fruit. This 2021 is juicy and sapid on the palate, all fruit, with caressing tannins on the finish.”
J.M Quarin (February 2024): 94/100

The 2020 vintage is rated 95/100 by La Revue du Vin de France "This 2020 lives up to all its promises, with a straightforward palate, a little tight, but promising, which stretches well over fine tannins. A Saint Julien that is perfectly defined and poised." (December 2022)
Rated 95/100 by Jean-Marc Quarin "Beautiful dark red with purple highlights. Bright nuances. Very aromatic nose, fine, fruity, suave. Smoky touch. Meticulous on the entry, fragrant in the middle, with a present body and a fine touch, the wine progresses on floral and fresh nuances. It bounces back on the finish, velvety, long, sappy and with no tannic angle. A lovely, gentle finish" (March 2023).

La Revue du Vin de France (September 2022): 95/100 “Elegant 2019, with a creamy texture and a melted, harmonious finish.”

The 2017 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2021): Coup de ♥ 94/100
Vinous (A. Galloni - March 2020): 95/100 “Just as it was in barrel, the 2017 Saint-Pierre is strikingly beautiful. Aromas of dark berries, plum, graphite, spice, new leather, licorice and smoke give the 2017 plenty of character. Enthusiasts will appreciate an intense, unctuous Saint-Julien brimming with personality. As always, Saint-Pierre is a deep, full-bodied Saint-Julien that represents the more virile side of the appellation.”
Vinous (N. Martin - February 2020): 93/100 “Saint-Pierre 2017 has a very intense bouquet with aromas of black cherry, blueberry and violet, in a style quite similar to Margaux. It is floral and seductive, with wonderful definition and concentration. The palate is medium-bodied, with supple tannins and fine, harmonious acidity, blossoming nicely into a caressing, delicate finish. this is a superb Saint-Pierre that can be drunk for over 20 years.”
J-M Quarin (October 2020): 93/100 “Caressing on the attack, juicy on development, then airy and very tasty, the wine stands out on the finish, very persistent, full of charm and unapproachable.”
