Pomerol

Bottle (1)

Grey Chip Selections: Heavy-hitters from a heavy hitter. All wines purchased through reputable retailers and stored in a temperature and humidity controlled facility.

"This wine is turning out much in the style of such wonderful Petrus vintages as 1967 and 1971. Although not as outstanding as either the 1998 or 2000, it displays beautiful intensity and finesse in a more evolved style than one normally expects from this estate. The wine has a dense, nearly opaque ruby/purple color, sweet black cherry, mulberry, truffle-infused fruit, full body, low acidity, admirable purity, and sweet tannin." (94 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, April 2002)

“Made by Jean-Claude Berrouet (with his son Olivier then training at Haut-Brion), the 1999 Pétrus was harvested in early September. It offers some of the best aromatics of the vintage in Pomerol, with lovely red berry fruit and black truffle, almost Burgundian in style and beautifully defined. The palate is medium-bodied with plenty of freshness and definition, touches of black truffle and sage infusing the red fruit. The limitations of the growing season perhaps show on the slightly conservative finish, but this still ranks among the better Pomerols of the vintage. ‘Fine and delicate,’ Olivier Berrouet remarked during the tasting, and I concur.” (92 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, Sept. 2019)
