PETRUS 1983 |

Petrus 1983 Pomerolu. 3bn, 2 labels very slightly scuffed at bottom edge, packed in 12bt owc, lid replaced with cardboardIn 2019, another view of this wine confirms how exciting it is, luscious, thick and opulent and as dense as its colour. A magnificent nose of spicy depth, a wine of its time - and I often yearn for this. A fabulous blackcurrant/liquorice taste that enfolds the palate, with that finish of roasted cumin. If Petrus had a voice, it would be the purring bass of Kurt Moll! Once again, this wine is an extraordinary manifestation of Merlot.
