PETRUS 1990 |

Petrus 1990 PomerolLot 6565: u. 1bn, labels slightly wrinkled through damp, otherwise good appearance, Lot 6566: Labels slightly wrinkled at sides, 2 labels with minor tear at bottom right, 2 capsules scufffed, Lot 6567: Labels wrinkled at sides, scuffed labels with 1 slightly peeling, owc slightly damagedThere is a deeper colour on the 1990 than on the 1989 - denser. Incredibly opulent, plummy Petrus. Very voluptuous. Wonderful dried fruit flavours - almost Napa-like. Mocha and mint notes. Extraordinary, ultra-ripe plums and prunes taste. Atypical. Sweet aniseed finish. The great comparison is between this and the 1989. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 100 6565:12 bts (owc) 6566:12 bts (owc) 6567:12 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
