Petrus 1994 OWC 1

Petrus 1994, presented in its original wooden case, is a remarkable expression from one of Bordeaux's most distinguished estates. Located in Pomerol, this wine is predominantly crafted from Merlot, known for its opulence and depth. The terroir of Petrus features rich clay soils, particularly conducive to producing exceptional Merlot, which thrives in this unique environment.

This vintage, while post-1950, nonetheless holds significant allure, showcasing both the elegance of the 1990s and the depth characteristic of Petrus. On the palate, one can expect a harmonious blend of dark fruit notes, complemented by nuances of chocolate and subtle earthy undertones. The tannins are finely woven, promising longevity while still being approachable in its current state.

The 1994 vintage, though sometimes overshadowed by its illustrious neighbours, offers a nuanced tasting experience that is a true testament to the estate's meticulous winemaking practices and commitment to quality. This is a wine that captures the essence of Petrus, making it a worthy addition to any serious collector's cellar.
