Description
Château Pétrus 1970
Pomerol
u. 4vts, 3ts, 2t/hs, 3 bottles come from a different importer, scuffed and slightly soiled labels, 2 nicked and 1 torn and partially missing label, corroded capsules, 3 nicked capsules, excellent color and clarity
In 2014, the huge, spicy nose is as great as ever. Incredible to remember that this had only a 12-day maceration, short for Pétrus. Rich and opulently-textured on the palate. Defies its age. Meaty, sweet and gummy. One half of that legendary pair of Pétrus, 1970 and 1971. I wish we met more often. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
