CHATEAU PETRUS Château Pétrus--Vintage 1945 Pomerol, cru exceptionnel. Château-bottled Believed original cork and capsule. Capsule slightly damaged. Bin-soiled and stained label. 'T de Vial & Fils' Negociants a Bordeaux slip label. Level top-shoulder Tasting note: While the 1947 Petrus is a big, juicy, succulent, fruity wine, the 1945 remains a backward, tannic colossus needing another 5-10 years of cellaring. The color reveals more purple hues than the 1947, and the nose offers aromas of black fruits, licorice, truffles, and smoked meat. Massively-constituted, with formidably high tannin and extract levels, this sleeping giant may evolve into another perfect example of Petrus.
