Pétrus
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend
We opened it, it was meh, 20 minutes later it's aromatics had improved, but a tired bottle with a low fill is never going to improve all that much.

Dec 26th, 2014Surprisingly youthful nose of luscious rich plummy baked dark red fruits and the most etheral sous bois and pipe tobacco I've ever smelled. The palate had poise and grace in its age, everything was in fantastic balance. The tannins are shockingly fine, adding the structure that is necessary to hold everything together. Simply superb. I can only hope I show as well as this when I'm nearly 65!
