Description
Château Pétrus 1970
Pomerol
Scuffed and nicked label, slightly chipped wax capsule, very good level
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
1 d.mag - 3 litres (cn)
