Medium red-ruby. Very ripe but subdued nose hints at mulberry, caramel, toffee, iron and nutty oak. Very ripe, broad and deep but quite closed today; lush and full but classically dry and light on its feet. Red berry and mineral flavors coat the palate. Builds impressively on the very long, gripping finish. I would not be surprised if this very suave Petrus merited a higher score a decade down the road.

 I've never tasted anything that filled my mouth with flavors quite like this wine. This wine has so much complexity you'll want to savor it over a long period of time to let it all soak in.
