Petrus 1998
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
In original wooden case, banded prior to inspection, One bin-soiled label, one slightly bin-soiled. Levels into neck
Tasting note: The 1998 Petrus is unquestionably a fabulous effort boasting a dense plum/purple colour as well as an extraordinary nose of black fruits intermixed with caramel, mocha, and vanilla. Exceptionally pure, super-concentrated, and extremely full-bodied, with admirable underlying acidity as well as sweet tannin, it reveals a superb mid-palate in addition to the luxurious richness for which this great property is known. The finish lasts for 40-45 seconds. Patience will definitely be required. Production was 2,400 cases, about 1,600 cases less than normal. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2040. Robert Parker; Wine Advocate (134) April 2001.
