Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
Truffle, Cuban cigar wrapper, exotic spice, liquorice and lilacs create the complex set of aromatics. Powerful yet poised, rich and fresh, dense and velvety, the finish remains with you for close to 60 seconds. The end notes deliver spicy, silky, creamy tannins, ripe, dark plums and darker red fruits that fill the palate. The wine is structured with all the right stuff to age for decades. This is the wine of the vintage.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Deep garnet-purple in colour, the 2017 Petrus comes galloping out of the glass with bold, expressive notions of Black Forest cake, blueberry preserves and Christmas pudding with nuances of molten chocolate, Chinese five spice, candied violets, liquorice and kirsch plus wafts of roses and cinnamon stick. Full-bodied, rich, spicy and fantastically concentrated, the palate has compelling freshness and a solid base of wonderfully ripe, velvety tannins, finishing very long and opulent. The aromatics at this youthful stage are atypical for Petrus and quite stunning—this 2017 is a bombshell! Furthermore, it is a unique style for this estate and one avid collectors should seek out!

This delivers a torrent of pure, unadulterated raspberry fruit that extends effortlessly through the finish, whilst hints of incense, mineral and rooibos tea glisten tantalisingly throughout. Shows terrific cut and precision, with eye-catching detail. Drink now through 2040.

Falstaff May - 2018
Falstaff
Dark ruby red with violet reflections and a narrow pale rim. Intense black berry fruit with hints of juniper and liquorice, smoky-spicy background, black cherry and mandarin peel. On the palate, substantially pronounced fruit with silky texture, fine nougat and saline minerality notes, candied violet and also velvety. Ripe fruit on the finish with great freshness, a hint of strawberry jam, chocolate and liquorice. Already well developed and very drinkable.

First of the vintage in Primeur, this wine maintains its place after bottling. Tasted in the morning at the château, I returned in the afternoon to taste this opened bottle kept cool. For pleasure, I give you both comments. Morning. Dark, intense and beautiful colour. Moderately aromatic nose, fine, fruity, pure, opening on swirling where it gains in depth. Entry on the palate, both rich and subtle, followed by a delightful development in which the wine will reveal itself rich, on a present yet airy body, with much brilliance in the flavour. It finishes long and totally unspittable. 5 hours later. Dark, intense and beautiful colour. Nose more intense than in the morning, fine, with a more powerful development, whilst remaining subtle. Two aromatic nuances appear: creaminess and almond. Aeration has greatly unified the palate. Now the wine presents itself all in meticulous amplitude, with much brilliance in the flavour, a style in roundness more unified than in the morning and extremely indulgent, to which Petrus had not accustomed us. It is a delight, perfumed, deep, with much class in the general and final touch. I draw your attention to the fact that this is not a small vintage at Petrus, but a great one.

Tasted blind. Deep ruby colour. Roasted red fruits on the nose. Strawberry and garrigue – quite unique in this vintage and perhaps beyond! Very succulent and round; very red fruited. If anything, a touch too ripe in its red fruit, but there is real persistence to the finish. Creamy and very polished.

The Petrus estate takes its name from the locality "Petrus". Its history is recent, yet this wine is already a legend. Throughout the 19th century, the estate belonged to the Arnaud family. From 1925, a woman from Libourne, Madame Loubat, acquired shares in the property. About twenty years later, she became the sole owner. Not accepting or understanding why Médoc wines were selling for higher prices than those from Pomerol, particularly her own, she did everything to make the most of such promising terroir. In a few decades, the myth was born. In 1961, Madame Lacoste and Monsieur Lignac, niece and nephew of Madame Loubat, inherited the estate. The vineyard is situated on the highest hill of the appellation, reaching an altitude of 40 metres. The soil, composed mainly of clay, is well-suited to Merlot, which makes up 95% of the grape varieties. The 12 hectares of the estate are subject to constant work and permanent attention to detail. Pétrus is considered a wine that is more accessible for tasting than some of its illustrious counterparts.
