Château Petit Village 2010

Château Petit Village is located among some of the most storied Pomerol powerhouses (Le Pin, La Conseillante, Vieux Château Certain).  It is a property that has huge potential yet to be reflected in its price.

Its deep, brilliant ruby colour hints at exceptional structure. The bouquet is an explosion of perfectly ripe red fruit of great subtlety and astonishing freshness. On the palate, the balance is outstanding: the power of the tannins, long-lasting flesh in the attack… and energy! Perfect balance characterises this Château Petit-Village 2010, full of promise.

"A very strong effort from Petit Village, the 2010 is the finest effort in years. Dark plum with hints of mocha, caramel, sweet currants and cherries, this opulent, savory, and explosive full-bodied wine already is accessible and evolved." - Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate, (2/27/2013, Issue 205), Rating: 91, Drink: 2013-2025

"The finest wine from this estate since their glorious 1982, the 2010 Petit Village possesses aromas of licorice, black cherries, cassis, truffles and oak. Powerful and deep with a corpulent texture, a silky mouthfeel and a wonderful lushness, it will be drinkable in 2-3 years and last for 15 or more." - Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate, (5/11/2011, Issue 194), Rating: 90-92, Drink: 2013-2028
