Petrus 1500ml
What
you'd expect from such a legendary estate. Wonderful palate
impression with silky, rich fruit. Plenty of blackberry and
chocolate character, has a full body and medium finish. Needs
time. Try after 1997.

Aromas of blackberry, black licorice and currant
follow through to a medium-to-full body, with fine
tannins and a long, sweet fruit finish. Balanced
and perfumed. Very Burgundian and pretty. Score

March 2008
Delivers blackberry, dried porcini, tobacco and
licorice aromas. Full-bodied, with layers of
velvety tannins and loads of dark chocolate, cigar
box, currant, berry and mineral. The finish is
long, with a coffee, almost meaty, aftertaste.
Very beautiful and balanced. Best after 2013.

This displays a positively classic nose of soaring
Asian spices, ripe plum and a gamut of ripe, pure
and lacy red and black fruits with the latter
predominating all wrapped together with a
seductive kiss of sweetly scented, highly perfumed
violets; the nose is, in a word, intoxicating. All
of this aromatic intensity leads to remarkably
powerful, linear, borderline robust flavors that
show simply unbelievable complexity and stunning
length. This will very likely surpass every other
RSV from the Domaine in recent memory. A dazzling
effort. |
