Description

Petrus 1978

Pomerol

u. vts, label nicked, damp-stained and heavily bin-soiled, capsule nicked and scuffed, slightly corroded capsule

At 40 years old, this is show-stopping. A huge blackberry nose leads to glorious earthy/tobacco depth of flavour on the palate. The impact, bounce and fresh attack are terrific. It has never been better and thrilled everyone around the table. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
