Château Pétrus--Vintage 1961
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel.
High-to-top shoulder level, deep color, excellent label
"Leaving aside the fact that this is one of the most excessively
priced stars of the international saleroom, a pretty good mouthful
of wine. 'Rich' in well over a dozen notes since 1967; 'black as
Egypt's night', even after 18 years in bottle: magnificently
opulent on nose and palate. From then on: appearance consistently
deep and velvety though now showing signs of maturity; a bouquet
that defies description, 'rich ripe mulberry Merlot' noted regularly,
also, after time in the glass, scented, spicy, vegetal, wholemeal,
and then a sort of tarry cinnamon. Very sweet, immensely full-bodied,
firm yet fleshy, velvety, with high extract masking tannin, lovely
texture, slightly chocolaty, crammed with fruit. Worth every penny.
Five stars. Magnificent now, and no end in sight." JMB
