Details
A RARE JEROBOAM OF PETRUS 1970
Lying London, E.16
Château Pétrus--Vintage 1970
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel. Château-bottled
Excellent appearance. Wax capsule, slighlty damaged on surface
In original wooden case without lid

Tasting note: This massive, highly-extracted, full-bodied, jammy, thick, unctuously-textured wine possesses a huge, spice, tobacco, black cherry, mocha-scented nose. It is a real turn-on. The wine is fully mature, but it has at least 20 years of life remaining. This spectacular Petrus is now superior to the 1971, which out-performed it for nearly two decades. Owners of this wine have a true nectar in their cellars. Last tasted 6/96. Robert Parker, Bordeaux, 3rd Edition
