A PERFECT ORIGINAL WOODEN CASE OF PETRUS 1989
Château Pétrus--Vintage 1989
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel. Château-bottled
Excellent appearance. Levels into neck. In original wooden case
Tasting Note: Another stunningly opulent, rich, full-bodied, amazingly concentrated, exotic, flamboyant Pétrus that remains remarkably youthful, and in need of 7-8 more years of bottle age. Additionally, the tannins are slightly more elevated, at least from a tactile impression. However, the 1989 looks to be another 30-year wine, with extraordinary equilibrium between all of its component parts. An amazing effort! Robert Parker; Bordeaux Book 3rd Edition (1998)
