Château Pétrus--Vintage 1975
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Slightly corroded capsules. Bin-soiled labels. Levels base of neck
Tasting Note: A deep, rich, fleshy and impressive mouthful from my first encounter on its tenth birthday - and since. How I managed to conduct, to 'moderate', 118 '75s at a one-day event in Malmo (in 1995) I do not know. All I do know is that I awarded the top three marks to Ch Pétrus, La Fleur and Mouton. The same year I was equally impressed: thick, velvety, full of fruit, chewy - you name it. Last tasted at de Cock's dinner in Paris, Dec 1995 ***** M.B.
