Grand Vin

The 2006 Petrus now seems to be developing more slowly than the 2006 Le Pin: the fruit is darker, with raspberry coulis, mulberry, a hint of jam and crushed rose petals. On the palate it is medium-bodied with fine tannins that gently wrap around the mouth and have an admirable fullness and complexity . On the finish you could almost think it was a Cabernet Franc, as subtle peppery notes emerge.
