The Pétrus 2005, an iconic wine from Pomerol, draws its strength from a blue clay terroir. This dominant Merlot, aged 20 months in new barrels, captivates with its aromas of blackberry and truffle, its silky texture and its minerality. A wine to keep until 2050, perfect with roast lamb or porcini mushrooms.
Nestled at the heart of Pomerol, Pétrus embodies the excellence of a family terroir where blue clay shapes wines of rare intensity.
- Terroir: 11.5 hectares of black clay soils, unique in Bordeaux, imparting a mineral depth and unmatched structure to the wines.
- Winemaking: Aged in new oak barrels for 20 months, for a pure expression and silky elegance, without artifice.
Tasting notes for Pétrus 2005
To the eye: a deep red robe with garnet reflections, dense and luminous, revealing a velvety texture at first glance.
On the nose: aromas of wild blackberry and candied black cherry, followed by a hint of black truffle and gentle spices, all underscored by a subtle chalky minerality.
On the palate: a powerful yet harmonious attack, where silky tannins combine with a lively acidity and a discreet salinity, leading to a remarkably long finish.
Serve at 16°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2005
An exceptional vintage, marked by a perfect balance between ripeness and freshness, ideal for lovers of structured and precise wines.
- Aging potential: at its peak between 2020 and 2050; store in a cellar at a stable temperature (12–14°C) and away from light.
