Product Description
Petrus, Pomerol
RP100 "The most extraordinarily concentrated and intense 1947 Bordeaux, as well as the most youthful today, this remarkable wine unfurls in the glass with aromas of rich berry fruit, plums, mocha, fruitcake, black truffle, vine smoke and spices. Full-bodied, muscular and enveloping, with a bottomless core of fruit, melted tannins and a long, resonant finish, its depth and completeness are breathtaking, and its sheer plenitude and unctuosity without ponderousness hard to describe. At age 75, this Pétrus remains thick, textural and vibrant, and it will surely see out a century in style." WIlliam Kelley for RP September 2022
VM "The nose is indescribably gorgeous with melted red fruit, cedar, touches of mint and juniper. There is such stunning delineation that you have to pause in wonderment. The palate is not intense or turbo-charged, the latter indicative of dubious provenance. Rather, it retains some of its flesh and feels lithe, yet still gently abraded by the passing years. What is preserved is perfect acidity with balletic balance. The ‘47 is endowed with unerring symmetry and, like the genuine legends of the twentieth century, seems undiminished by time." Neal Martin for December 2025
