as well as fresh

It's surprisingly fruit-driven considering the appellation

especially ripe pears and lime blossom

Tasting it makes me feel like I am in the cellar in Monforte

and the mouthfeel is fresh

Petrus, Pomerol, France 2010 1.5L The Pip as well as freshThis a Petrus with extraordinary balance and depth. It shows such elegance in the nose with complexity of black olives, dark fruits, and flowers. The palate is full and ultra velvety yet there is a cashmere quality to the texture. It takes your breath away. There's almost a Burgundian quality in the mouthfeel meaning it takes you deep into the soil and captivates your attention. 100 Pts James Suckling
