Château Pétrus 1994

Volume: 750ml / ABV: 13%

Château Pétrus 1994 is a fine expression from a challenging vintage in Bordeaux. While the 1994 season brought mixed results across the region, Pétrus managed to craft a wine of depth, structure, and character thanks to its exceptional terroir and careful vineyard management. This vintage offers a slightly firmer and more classic profile, appealing to those who appreciate more restrained, mineral-driven Pomerol wines. With nearly three decades of aging, the 1994 Pétrus has developed admirable complexity and smoothness.

Tasting Note

Nose
An elegant bouquet of dark berries, plum, and black cherry layered with earthy aromas of forest floor, dried leaves, and cigar box. Subtle hints of black pepper, cedar, and dark chocolate add further complexity as the wine breathes.

Palate
Medium to full-bodied with firm but well-integrated tannins. Flavors of blackberry, currant, and dried fig unfold on the palate, balanced by notes of cocoa, leather, and smoky oak. The wine’s acidity adds freshness, giving it a lively edge even with its maturity.

Finish
A long, dry, and refined finish, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and earthy minerality. It ends with grace and a classic Bordeaux firmness that reflects the vintage’s structure.
