The 2017 Petrus reveals a wine in transition, showing flashes of brilliance beneath its current reticence. Blood orange and floral overtones lift the dark fruit core, creating an ethereal quality that hints at the finesse to come. Berrouet's extended maceration has built structure without weight, crafting a Petrus that will evolve on elegance rather than power. Still finding its voice, but the underlying quality is unmistakable.
