90 / 100
Jean-Marc Quarin June - 1994
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark red colour. Good intensity. Medium intensity nose. Fine. Fresh. Woody, still with nuances of orange, caramel without too much fruit. On the palate, discreet and fruity attack developing on a round structure that thickens in the mouth to become fleshy, still on the fruit. Slow tannic development, coated and well balanced, evolving towards a persistent, textured finish, with flavours of fruit, wood, undergrowth, cream and dried fruit. Good length for the year. A notch above the others, but lacking the richness of great vintages.

Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
Very light in colour and in concentration. Texturally, the wine was soft, refined and the red fruits were still fresh. But there was not a lot left in the tank here.

Not great but very good. Lovely finesse and good backbone of tannins and fruit. Medium-bodied and silky, featuring a berry, tobacco and mineral finish.

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.
