Description

Petrus 1985

Pomerol

u. 3vts, 2ts, 2t/hs, 1hs, bin-soiled labels, 1 slightly wine-stained label, 1 wrinkled label, scuffed and nicked capsules, "Specially Selected and Reserved for Mr. Max Werner" tag adhered to bottom of 7 bottles with tape slightly overlapping on front labels


A recent bottle was one of the greatest, with a glorious earthy, truffley, tobacco bouquet, with notes of lead pencil and liquorice all the way through. It was just so rosy of taste, so bloomy, utterly luscious and yet linear underneath. Another bottle had a bouquet that was very berryish, typically Petrus. Irony taste. Absolutely ready. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
