Petrus 1961 (4 BT)

Petrus 1961

Pomerol

u.2h/ms, 2ms, 1 bin-soiled and nicked label, slightly corroded capsules, very slight signs of seepage

A fascinating fact about this wine is that it finished its alcoholic fermentation in Spring 1962, with the malolactic following in the summer! Incredible curranty nose with a slight affinity with Port. So rich and “earthy”, in a totally refined way. Damp earth after rain. Amazing, almost “Porty” wine on the palate. Yet such fresh fruit at the end. Immense. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
