Product Information:
Robert Parker: Currently closed and backward, this wine seems toshare a more similar character to Trotanoy than in any recentvintages I recall. Powerful, structured, masculine, but a long-termproposition, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine displays notes ofcaramelized, sweet black cherries and wild berry fruit with plentyof spice, earth, and a hint of herbaceousness. The wine has veryhigh tannins, impressive concentration, but that mouth-searing levelof tannin. This is one Petrus that should probably be forgotten forat least 8-10 years and drunk over the following two to threedecades. I always find it ironic that Petrus, which is virtually100% Merlot, is more backward than the first growths of Medoc, whichare Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated.
