Wine Enthusiast January - 2014
Wine Enthusiast
This extravagantly perfumed wine has great juicy, ripe fruits. The tannic structure is almost secondary in the welter of ripe fruits, but it is enough to promise ageing. Acidity and rich fruitiness partner each other to give a wine that is both fresh and powerful. Drink from 2020.

Falstaff February - 2016

Dark ruby red, violet reflections and subtle rim lightening. On the nose, background nuances of black truffle, black berry compote, fresh Amarena cherries, sweet and savoury notes and subtle orange peel. Juicy texture, red berry nuances, silky tannins with fresh structure. A fruity finish with nuances of red berries. A very elegant wine, characterised by a saline minerality.

Floral, boysenberry, peppermint, truffle, cocoa, coffee, spice and kirsch. Soft, pure red cherry with refined tannins and a plush, silky, long finish. Lacking the depth and concentration found in 2009 or 2010, there is ample acidity, structure, freshness, balance, length and a strong sense of purity.

A dense ruby/purple-tinged colour and restrained but intriguing aromas of kirsch, raspberry jam, wood spice, and mulberries are found in this full-bodied Petrus. An undeniable success in 2011, it is rich, layered and pure with light to moderate tannin, but seems slightly less muscular and tannic compared to its stablemate, Trotanoy. Forget it for a few years and drink it over the following 25 years. Made from 100% Merlot, it tips the scales at 13.5% alcohol. In short, it is typically open-knit and already showing very well. This is quite opulent.

Petrus

Petrus is one of the most iconic and most sought-after wines of the Pomerol appellation, occupying a unique place in the Bordeaux wine landscape. Unlike the grands crus classés of the Médoc, Pomerol has no official classification, yet Pétrus has established itself over time as the absolute reference of the appellation, recognised for the singularity of its terroir and the exceptional consistency of its wines.

The Petrus vineyard rests on a unique plateau of ferruginous clay soils, dominated by a high proportion of blue clay, rare in Bordeaux. This terroir gives the wines a dense structure, remarkable depth and an immediately recognisable identity. The grape variety used is almost exclusively Merlot, a variety that finds here an expression of rare intensity.

The international renown of Petrus was built during the 20th century, notably under the influence of key figures who shaped its style and reputation. The wines of Pétrus are distinguished by their richness, their silky texture and their exceptional ageing potential. Among the iconic vintages: 1961 wine, 1982 vintage, the mythical 1989, Petrus 1990, 2000, Petrus 2016, 2017 wine, regularly cited among the greatest wines of Bordeaux.
