Description

Petrus 2003

Pomerol

Good level, excellent appearance ; Bon niveau, excellente apparence


A gloriously vivid, almost rose-hip nose. Extraordinary freshness, which is always the surprise in this very hot vintage, the result of all the experience of the Moueix/Berrouet team. Great ground coffee taste. Glycerol and liquorice on the middle palate, but the finish is not huge. Totally in balance. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
