Robert PARKER – The Wine Advocate: 93/100 pontos
Currently closed, this wine seems to share a character more similar to Trotanoy than any other recent vintage I can recall. Powerful, structured, masculine, but a long-term proposition, this dark ruby/purple wine displays notes of caramelized black cherries, sweets and wild fruits with plenty of spice, earth, and a hint of herbaceousness. The wine has very high tannins, impressive concentration, but that level of tannin that you feel in the mouth… This is a Petrus that should probably be forgotten for at least 8-10 years and drunk during the next two to three decades. I always find it ironic that Petrus, which is practically 100% Merlot, is later than the first growths of Medoc, which are dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon.
