Description
EN PRIMEUR DISCOUNT VALID UNTIL 31/12/2025 - DELIVERY SPRING/SUMMER 2026
The unique clay soil of Petrus, which has the ability to store water reserves well, but also has the ability to drain excess water due to its location at the highest point of the plateau, once again proved to be an ideal place for the melot grape . Mildew had only a very limited influence on the vines here and the warm late summer, helped by some showers in August, did not lead to heat stress here. Perfectly ripe grapes were harvested in peace and quiet between September 11 and 20. The wine is characterized by very pure aromas. Olivier was careful with the extraction, because the grapes had more pulp than usual. The result is a wine with an expressive nose of small, dark and red fruits, floral notes of violets and minerals. The taste is beautifully balanced, with elegant, powdery tannins, with a sweet ripeness, cherry fruit, some cocoa, very pure and lively acidity. Impressive! The wine comes directly from Chateau and is packaged in OWC/1
This Peter also comes directly from the Chateau. We always buy all our wines from importers or chateaus so that authenticity can be checked and that we can be sure that these wines are always stored in good conditions. We only deliver this wine in the Netherlands. For foreign customers you can choose Pick-up (collect yourself or by a courier of your choice).

Château Pétrus is owned by the Moueix family and is located in Pomerol (Bordeaux). Château Pétrus makes the most famous merlot wine in the world! The vineyard with its 11.5 hectares is small but fine, and is planted with 95% merlot and 5% cabernet franc vines with an average age of 45 years. The soil consists of ferrous clay.
The Moueix family also owns Château La Fleur-Pétrus, Lagrange, Trotanoy, Hosanna (all Pomerol) and Château Magdeleine (Saint-Émilion). The grape pickers from all these domains jointly wait for the most favorable weather conditions, after which they all go to the Château Petrus vineyard and harvest within 1 to 2 days. The average annual production is only 2,500 boxes of 12 bottles - actually too little for the demand for these wines. The wines of Pétrus are among the most expensive, and also among the richest and most luxurious wines of Bordeaux. The fantastic taste experience is derived from the terroir, the excellent grape and the magnificent care by the team of Château Pétrus.
