2000 Ch. Pétrus, Pomerol

"A magical effort from Petrus....the color is inky plum/purple to the rim and the nose, which starts slowly, begins to roar after several minutes, offering up scents of smoke, blackberries, cherries, licorice, and an unmistakable truffle/underbrush element. On the palate, this enormous effort is reminiscent of dry vintage port, with fabulous ripeness, a huge, unctuous texture, enormous body, and a colossal 65-second finish....It is another wine to add to the legacy of the great vintages of Petrus. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2050." 100/100 points (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - Apr-2003)
