Michael Broadbent April - 2000
Michael Broadbent
Very impressive: crisp ruby; sweet nose, opening up beatifully; very sweet, rich, full-bodied, caramel flavour and aftertaste. Long life.

Lively crimson. Much richer and sweeter than Le Pin. Not glorious, and even with a slightly metallic note. Still chewy and well behind the other two top Pomerols noted here in terms of evolution.

Falstaff February - 2019
Falstaff
Strong ruby garnet, good colour depth, subtle lightening at the rim. Fine black forest berry compote, underlaid with nuances of Périgord truffles and a hint of candied violets, dark morello cherries and tobacco-like noble wood. On the palate taut, very tightly woven, fine extract sweetness, firm, somewhat angular tannins, good acid structure, a wine from the large bottle that still appears very youthful, an imperious Pétrus, characterised by minerality and spice as well as good further ageing potential.

Jean-Marc Quarin May - 2012
Jean-Marc Quarin
Colour still intense and evolved. Intense nose, fine, fruity, vanilla and spicy. Full on the attack, this wine develops rich in the middle, very flavourful and fruity. Coated tannins. Juicy and long finish with a spicy flavour. Very good to drink.

Wine Spectator June - 2001

Dark red, with an amber edge. Aromas of chocolate, stewed berries, Merlot and raisins. Full-bodied, velvety and rich. Lovely palate. Delicious now, but will hold on. An autumnal wine.

Cellar Tracker November - 2021
Cellar Tracker
Exceptional fill line, solid cork. Clear, bright ruby colour, no hint of bricking. Huge nose and intense flavour. A bit tight, rich, big red and blue fruit, med to full body. Very long finish, with some back end tannins. Unreal and simply outstanding.

Petrus

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.
