Details

Petrus 2020, a wine of exceptional pedigree, unveils itself with an alluring inky color that hints at its depth and concentration. The nose is an intricate tapestry of aromas, where the rich essence of blackcurrants, plums, and dark cherries gracefully mingles with opulent notes of cedar, tobacco, and graphite. This aromatic symphony is a prelude to a truly extraordinary tasting experience. On the palate, the wine is a revelation, offering a lush and velvety texture that envelops the senses. The taste is a harmonious fusion of ripe fruit sweetness and complex savory elements, with supple tannins adding structure and finesse. As the journey unfolds, the finish is a lasting testament to its elegance, leaving behind a profound and memorable impression. Petrus 2020 stands as a beacon of Bordeaux's winemaking prowess, a masterpiece that embodies the timeless allure of Pomerol and the artistry of Château Pétrus.


Robert Parker - 100 Points

"As I observed to Olivier Berrouet, it's hardly very original to find a wine critic extolling the virtues of this Pomerol reference point; and yet, whether one likes it or not, there's no denying that the 2020 Pétrus is a brilliant achievement and indeed one of the very finest vintages at this address over the last two decades. Unwinding in the glass with a deep bouquet of dark berries, cherries and cassis mingled with hints of exotic spices, violets and vine smoke, it's full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with huge depth at the core, exquisitely refined tannins and a youthfully reserved, even restrained profile despite its power and size. This serious, classically proportioned Pétrus is a monument in the making."


Antonio Galloni - 98 Points

"The 2020 Pétrus is a wine of pure and total sensuality. Silky, creamy tannins wrap around a core of dark red and black fruit. A wine with explosive depth but no hard edges and mind-blowing balance, the 2020 is so alluring, even in the early going. Time in the glass brings out lifted floral top notes that add freshness. What strikes most is the elegance of the tannins. I don't think I have ever tasted a young Pétrus like the 2020. Technical Director Olivier Berrouet gave the 2020 a bit more time on the skins than is normal. Aging was 17-18 months in oak. Let's cut to the chase. The 2020 Pétrus is profoundly great. "
