CRITIC REVIEWS
James Lawther MW
Yield down 40%. Less power and more elegance with the accent on the fruit. Harmonious and balanced with a fine grain of tannin on the finish.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
The 2013 Petrus is medium garnet in color. It rolls out with expressive notions of black cherry compote, cassis, rose oil, and licorice, followed by suggestions of spice cake, fertile loam, and crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate is laden with youthful red and black fruit layers, supported by fine-grained tannins and compelling tension, finishing long and fragrant. This is a triumph for this vintage!
