Wine Advocate # 189
Jun 2010 Robert Parker 100 Drink: 2015 - 2065
A prodigious Petrus, this wine has that extra level of intensity and complexity that is monumental. The magic is clearly Petrus, and the 2000 will always be an interesting vintage to compare to another legend in the making, the 1998, or more recently, of course, the 2005, 2008, and 2009. Extremely full-bodied, with great fruit purity, an unmistakable note of underbrush, black truffle, intense black cherries, licorice, and mulberry, the wine seems to show no evidence of oak whatsoever. It has a sumptuous, unctuous texture, plenty of tannin, but also vibrancy and brightness. This is a remarkable wine that seems slightly more structured and massive than the 1998, which comes across as slightly more seamless, as if it were haute couture. This wine needs at least another 5-10 years of cellaring and should age for 50+ years.

Wine Journal
Neal Martin 97-99 Drink -
Tasted three times. First in September 2003 at the Farr 2000 horizontal: a beautiful, understated nose of blueberry, cherry and a touch of espresso coffee. The palate has a lovely balance with sweet raspberry, blackberry. Very complex and with fabulous concentration. But not as profound on the palate as I expected - the wine does not "sing" like Ausone. Very long finish. It needs to develop more character if it wants to develop immortal status. Tasted again at the Petrus vertical in January 2004: a lucid deep ruby hue. The nose has grown in confidence: lots of rich sweet vanillary oak, black cherry - quite decadent. The palate has layers of precocious young fruits with fine concentration. Velvety smooth tannins, very fresh acidity and a wholly decadent feel. A touch of blackberry on the finish. Still lacks the poise of Ausone but a lovely wine that is more accessible than the 1998. Thirdly and most impressively at the Petrus vertical held by FWE in October 2005. Very clear, black/garnet colour. The nose is very pure with blackberry, cherry and cassis. Incredibly fresh and feminine - has a floral character redolent of a Margaux. A fabulous palate: sauve, sophisticated, elegant, pure. Has something of a New Worl extravagance with an incredibly long succulent finish. Velvety mouthfeel. The dregs were still drinking the following morning - always a good sign.

In perfect condition.
