Pétrus--Vintage 1961
11 bottles per lot
THE 1961 PETRUS It is hard to imagine a world without Pétrus, for in the sphere of wine, Pétrus circles and radiates its influence like a celestial body. Pétrus is the ultimate expression of the opulence and charm that right bank wines can deliver when at their best. The wine is extraordinarily rich, powerful and conectrated often with characteristics of chocolate, truffles, Asian spices and unltra-ripe, creamy black fruits. Usually approachable within a decade, Pétrus wines from top vintages continue to appreaciate for many more years. As Stephen Brook writes in The Complete Bordeaux "the name Pétrus conjures up Bordeaux at its most splendid, most rarified, and most luxurious...Pétrus is a sumptuous wine."

On this occasion, our bottle was richly fruit, with notes of prune, fig, truffle and mineral. The wine did not seem very evolved, yet it was not particularly forthcoming on the nose. On the palate one senses the power and strength of Pétrus - this bottle seemed to be holding a bit in reserve, yet it was a powerful, concentrated wine with a long finish and a longer future in front of it."
