Château Pétrus--Vintage 1966
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Lots 80 level base of neck. Lots 81 and 82 levels top-shoulder. Lot 83 just below top-shoulder
Tasting Note: Well, I suppose this is the style of wine they all try to imitate. But I must admit, it was enormously impressive, from a 'hefty' cask sample in 1967, followed by some impressive tastings in the 1980's. Deep, the wine's extract almost visible it is so thick looking. And equally rich nose, almost malty yet developing a lovely fragrance. Sweet, full-bodied, yet tannic. Made as if the grapes had not been pressed but allowed to drip their sugar-laden juice. Last tasted April 1990 ***** M.B.
