Château Pétrus--Vintage 2005
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel. Château-bottled
Tasting note: Inky/ruby/purple-colored with a classic, but tightly wound bouquet of vanillin, cedar, roasted herbs, mulberry jam, black cherries, licorice, and graphite, the full-bodied, powerful, tannic 2005 Pétrus is a super-concentrated, backward wine meant for five decades of aging. As excruciatingly tannic as some of the northern Médocs, it requires at least 15 years of bottle age. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2050+. 96+ points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #176, April 2008
