Petrus 1996
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
In original wooden case. Very slightly bin-soiled labels. One nicked label. Levels: top-shoulder or better
Tasting note: Proprietor Christian Moueix's 1996s have turned out well in the bottle. The 1996 Petrus is a big, monolithic, foursquare wine with an impressively opaque purple color, and sweet berry fruit intermixed with earth, pain grille, and coffee scents. Full-bodied and muscular, with high levels of tannin, and a backward style, this wine (less than 50% of the production was bottled as Petrus) will require patience. It is a mammoth example. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2035 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 122, April 1999
