Perfect condition of the bottle. Always stored in a cool, dark cellar. The 2003 Pétrus, produced predominantly from Merlot with a small percentage of Cabernet Franc, has an intense ruby color and a complex, expressive nose of ripe black fruits, truffle and earthy nuances. The warm growing season produced a wine with a rich, opulent texture and concentrated flavors. On the palate it offers full-bodied and velvety tannins, notes of black cherry, plum, chocolate and hints of spices. This vintage can be enjoyed now, but could continue to evolve and improve in the cellar for many more years.
