Offered in original wooden cases
Château Pétrus--Vintage 2002
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel. Château-bottled
Tasting note: A relatively strong effort for this vintage, but hardly one of the profound examples of Petrus, this wine exhibits a dark plum color and a somewhat monolithic, foursquare personality with notes of plums, black cherries, licorice, and some herbs and damp earth. Medium-bodied, muscular, and tannic, but lacking some charm and sweetness, it should age nicely for 12-15 more years and possibly be even better than my score. Readers who buy it should not even attempt opening a bottle for at least 4-5 years. 90 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #158, April 2005
