Chateau Petrus 1994 Chateau Petrus 1994 Pomerol Excellent levels and appearance Sweet, scented nose. Mature and ready. Soft and sweet. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 9 3 bts (cn) per lot: GBP 2200-3000 per lot: USD 3400-4800 per lot: EUR 2600-3400 The very word Petrus creates a "frisson" unlike any other wine name - and the liquid in the glass induces a dream-like silence as its enormous, almost roasted flavour envelops the palate. The sheer exoticism of this revered vineyard, where clay combines with Merlot to make something wildly heady, needs to be experienced by everyone once in their life (preferably many more times!). Petrus does not taste like other Bordeaux - it is not "classic" but stupendously original, full of oriental spice box flavours which unfold endlessly. A one-off wine that inhabits a world of its own and, of course, a rarity due to its small (11.5 hectares) size. Serena Sutcliffe, MW LYING IN GREENFORD, MIDDLESEX Offered Duty Paid only Quantity: 1
