1990 Pro Rating
Château Petrus 1990 is a richly textured, sensual Pomerol, layering ripe raspberry and mulberry fruit with hints of black olive and warm earth. The palate is plush and smooth yet firmly supported by fine, velvety tannins, showing both purity and depth as it evolves steadily in the glass. A vibrant, talking-point wine at full maturity, it combines generous fruit with a long, composed finish.

Château Petrus is an iconic, single-wine estate in Pomerol on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, producing a profoundly concentrated, long-lived red made almost exclusively from old-vine Merlot rooted in rare, iron-rich blue clay atop the plateau’s highest point. Its unique terroir, meticulous low-yield viticulture, and traditional élevage in new oak barrels give a wine renowned for opulence and depth yet remarkable finesse, making it one of the world’s most coveted and expensive Bordeaux.
