Pétrus--Vintage 1970
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Slightly damaged wax capsule. Badly bin-soiled and damaged label. Level into neck
Tasting note: ...certainly one of the great Pétrus of the last half century. The wine has a huge nose of cedar, caramel, vanilla, tobacco, fruitcake, and liquorice-infused black cherry jam. It is unctuously textured and very full-bodied, with extraordinary sweetness and glycerin, and a layered, viscous finish. This wine should continue to drink well for at least another 20 years. Anticipated maturity: Now-2025. Last tasted, 11/02 Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 4th Edition Jan 2003
