Petrus is not actually a 'chateau' per se, although it is often referred to as such.
Critic tasting note: (1989 vintage) "Served blind, there was no doubting this was Pomerol. The concentrated, opulent layers of dark red and black plums, cherries dipped in chocolate, flowers and truffle grabbed you, held you and kept you interested from start to finish. Perhaps at close to 33 years of age, this is starting to show its true colors." - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Current condition: Ready to drinkThe 1989 vintage for Bordeaux is widely considered to be one of the greats.
