Description

Château Pétrus 1982
Pomerol
Good color and clarity, 1 very slightly creased label, 1 heavily damp soiled label, 1 damp stained and partially torn label, 1 slightly damp soiled and partially torn and taped label, 1 slightly raised cork, 1 capsule cut and pulled to reveal fully branded cork

Mature colour. A great nose of prunes, spices, huge character and 'presence'. Liquorice, with sweet, gummy definition. Some sweet aniseed. A lovely sweet 'leather' taste. Now has a pruney finish, with sweet, soft cinnamon at the end. Really mocha as it lingers on the palate. Superb, full, rich, ultra-dimensional taste. Rolls round the mouth. Unbeatable and stunning, with great meaty character. Leave it in the glass and it opens out gloriously. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
