Description

Petrus 1964 

Pomerol

u. 3.5cm, label slightly damaged, capsule has old signs of seepage at top; étiquette légèrement abimée, capsule avec légers signes d'écoulement anciens

In 2018, deep crimson colour to the rim. Astonishing - but this bottle was bought very young and then stored in a cold, damp cellar. Concentrated cassis, black cherry and tobacco nose. Then, more woodsmoke. On the palate, irony and velvety, with a touch of volatile which is utterly part of its persona and its epoch. The juiciness is amazing and the texture leaves its memory all over the mouth. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
