Petrus 1982 

Pomerol

u. 2bn, 5vts, 2ts, 6 bin soiled and damp stained labels, 2 wine stained labels, 2 nicked labels, 1 slightly torn label, 3 torn labels, scuffed capsules, 1 torn capsule, 1 torn and loose capsule, 1 oxidized capsule, 1 Mexico import tag, different importers

Mature colour. A great nose of prunes, spices, huge character and "presence". Liquorice, with sweet, gummy definition. Some sweet aniseed. A lovely sweet "leather" taste. Now has a pruney finish, with sweet, soft cinnamon at the end. Really mocha as it lingers on the palate. Superb, full, rich, ultra-dimensional taste. Rolls round the mouth. Unbeatable and stunning, with great meaty character. Leave it in the glass and it opens out gloriously. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
