"The 1982 Petrus is a wine I have been fortunate enough to taste

perhaps a dozen times, however, this is the only occasion when it is

served in magnum and at least based on this, it makes a world of

dierence compared to its lesser showings in bottle. Firstly, the colour

is deeper, slightly more opaque. The bouquet is certainly tighter and

more youthful with a little earthiness and singed leather infusing the

dark berry fruit, later joined by a scintilla of shucked oyster shell. The

palate is wonderful: ne tannin, perfectly pitched acidity, great depth

and complexity than bottle examples. It felt almost inty in the mouth,

quite linear and direct with a very persistent nish. Advising folks to

buy this wine in larger format sounds ridiculous to the 99.99% who

could never aord it, but if your number has come up on the lottery,

then heed my advice. Tasted at the Petrus dinner at the Épure

restaurant in Hong Kong.
