Pomerol produced some of the finest wines in 2015 in Bordeaux. Exuberant in nature, the wines made in search of balance were also graced by a backbone of acidity that made them unique when compared with 2009 or 2010. In 2015, Petrus made a perfect wine with every element in balance, where velvety tannins combined with beautiful fruit. As Oliver points out, “We wanted to preserve the quality of the tannins.” And tannins perfectly integrated into this flawless merlot were the result.
