"At first not overly expressive, the '71 Pétrus opened with time to show great curranty complexity and a startling richness on the nose without the heaviness that one sometimes finds with Pomerols of this vintage. Again, on the palate there is a balanced richness and an impressive length to the deeply scented finish. Wonderful!" CC, November 2009
