Pétrus 1989
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
In original wooden case. Good capsules. Slight nicks to bottom of labels. Levels into neck.
Tasting note: This wine is more tightly knit, more tannic, but every bit the blockbuster concentrated effort that its younger sibling, the 1990, is. The colour is virtually identical, a dense ruby/purple with no lightening at the edge. In the mouth the wine cuts a broad swath, with spectacular intensity, richness, massive concentration, and high levels of tannin, yet the wine is fabulously well-delineated and has a finish that goes on for nearly a minute. It does not seem to be quite as evolved as the 1990, and my instincts suggest there is a bit more tannin, but both are as prodigious as Pétrus can be. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2040. Last tasted, 8/02. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 4th Edition
Jan 2003.
