Petrus Estate Red Wine 1995

Robert Parker scored 96 points.

This wine comes from Château Petrus, a prestigious Pomerol estate on the right bank of Bordeaux, France. It's predominantly Merlot, with only a small amount of Cabernet Franc in a few vintages, and in recent years, it's made entirely of Merlot. Its quality is exceptional, with 10 vintages receiving perfect scores from Robert Parker's team. James Suckling even wrote an article declaring Petrus one of his favorite wines. This wine has soft tannins and a velvety texture, with unique aromas of dark fruit, black olives, dark chocolate, and earth. Whether in its early, barrel-aged stages or in its mature, decades-old form, it's a stunning red wine.
