Description

Petrus 2012

Pomerol


Spicy, plummy nose. Gloriously rich and opulent on the palate with layers of ripeness and, at the same time, perfectly balanced acidity. The taste does the talking. Layers of raspberries and blackberries and a lovely fresh sign off. The richness has a certain lightness of touch. Distinguished. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
