Description

Petrus 2009

Pomerol

Excellent level and appearance, embossed metal capsule, banded until inspection


40 hl/hectare made this year. A wonderful exuberance right from the beginning. So complete, opulent and with classic structure. The skins were as thick as in 1975 (remember that impressive wine), but here mixed with the beauty of 1990. Velvety violets on the palate with a finish of liquorice. Pretty stunning.
