Château Pétrus--Vintage 1964
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Levels: One very top and one top shoulder
"Most recently, a superb double magnum from Tom Black's cellar at a dinner for the Russian National Orchestra: impressively deep and still youthful; low-keyed but harmonious and complete nose (but I never consider the bouquet of Petrus, or quite a few other Pomerols, is as interesting as the taste and feel in the mouth). In fact, I found it straining my imagination to use the expression bouquet at all. But what a glorious mouthful and mouth feel. Deep. Rich. Yet not overpowering. Last tasted at Mosimann's, London, Dec 2000 ***** MB, Vintage Wine
