Description
The 1982 Petrus from Pomerol is a famous, fully mature, and highly collectible Bordeaux wine known for its rich, complex character, though some critics have found variations in quality across different bottles.
The 1982 vintage was marked by ideal weather conditions that ripened the Merlot grapes to perfection, resulting in a wine of great depth and potential longevity. While some bottles have been described as “dazzling” and “masterpiece” examples of mature Pomerol, others have noted an unexpected herbaceous or vegetal character, with less concentration than some later, monumental vintages like 1989.
- Aroma: A complex tapestry of dark plum, black cherry, blackberry preserve, cedar, smoke, and truffle notes.
- Palate: Full-bodied with a velvety, unctuous texture, and flavors of dark chocolate, spice, earth, and mocha.
- Finish: Long, satisfying, and nuanced with lingering dark fruit and earthy echoes
