FINE BORDEAUX INCLUDING A RARE MAGNUM OF PETRUS 1971 AND CASES OF MOUTON AND CHEVAL BLANC FROM THE CLASSIC 1982 VINTAGE
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD)
Château Pétrus--Vintage 1971
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Capsule cut to reveal fully branded cork. Slightly bin-soiled and slightly creased label. Level into neck
Tasting Note: Rich, full-bodied (13.5 alcohol), laden with tannin in cask. My best notes in the mid-1980s, its power and tannin tamed by its velvety Pomerol texture and flesh. More restrained in the nose, more meaty than the Cheval Blanc, which after all is just a stone's throw away. Impressive, fragrant. (Nov 1990) M.B.
