Château Pétrus--Vintage 1967
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Levels: Lot 60: into neck, excellent appearance. Lot 61: bottom neck, slightly wrinkled labels
"In this vintage that produced so many lightweight wines, only the stablemate of Petrus, Trotanoy, can compete with the great Petrus. Fully mature, with good dark ruby color and minimal browning, this chunky, fleshy, warm, and generous wine has plenty of ripe Merlot fruit, a viscous, weighty texture, and fast-fading tannin. A lovely Petrus, it is best drunk over the next decade. I recently drank a bottle of this wine with my wife to celebrate my 50th birthday, and it remains a beautiful, savory, complex, intense wine with a seamless texture. Anticipated maturity: Now-2005. Last tasted, 7/97 (from a magnum)." Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
