Details
Château Pétrus--Vintage 1961
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel.
Level of first bottle top-shoulder, sixth bottle with high-to-top-shoulder level; labels with minor soil
"...consistently deep and velvety though now showing signs of maturity; a bouquet that defies description, 'rich ripe mulberry Merlot' noted regularly, also, after time in the glass, scented, spicy, vegetal, wholemeal, and then a sort of tarry cinnamon. Very sweet, immensely full-bodied, firm yet fleshy, velvety with high extract masking tannin, lovely texture, slightly chocolaty, crammed with fruit." JMB
