Pétrus

Petrus, a legendary Bordeaux wine, boasts an exceptional terroir and closely guarded expertise. Founded by the Arnaud family in the 19th century, it gained prominence when Edmonde Loubat recognized its potential and partnered with Jean-Pierre Moueix in 1945. Together, they elevated Petrus to greatness, becoming especially renowned in the United States with the help of Kennedy's endorsement. Following Loubat's death, Jean-Pierre Moueix took sole ownership, enlisting winemaker Jean-Claude Berrouet. Today, Jean-François and Jean Moueix, along with Olivier Berrouet, continue the legacy of Petrus.

The estate spans 11.5 hectares of vineyards on a unique clay hill, providing excellent water supply to the 100% Merlot grape variety. Aged in new French oak barrels for 18 to 20 months, Petrus displays unmatched olfactory and taste characteristics—velvety, deep, spicy, and irresistibly truffled. This extraordinary wine leaves an indelible memory to those fortunate enough to savor it, solidifying its place among the most revered Bordeaux wines.

Petrus stands as a truly unique and exceptional wine, renowned for its concentration and richness in Pomerol. Its grand vintages offer an unctuous texture and palate strength reminiscent of a fine Porto. Yet, what sets Petrus apart is its remarkable balance and penetrating aroma, distinguishing it not just from other Pomerols but also from all other wines. This singular personality originates from the clay-dominated soil of its vineyards, which retains water effectively, allowing the ideal surface for the Merlot grape. With very old vines, some over 70 years, and a dedicated winemaking team led by Jean-Claude Berrouet, Petrus ensures that only the best grapes are meticulously selected and vinified to create this legendary wine.
