"Seamless and supple, this wine had everyone fooled when it was served blind at a Petrus dinner. Most people were guessing different vintages of Petrus. Not one sign of over-ripeness or jammy flavors here despite the warm vintage. Elegant, subtle, generous and very long on the finish. Simple gorgeous."
