The Merlot-based wine comes from an 11.4-hectare (28-acre) vineyard in the eastern part of the Pomerol appellation, and is known for being rich and powerful, with characteristics of chocolate, spice and black fruit. Petrus is one of the world's most collectable and expensive wines. Records of Petrus date back to 1837 but the estate's superstardom has come more recently, when the Moueix family bought a half share in 1962. Since then, it has become a fixture in cellars and on auction lists, and consistently fetches higher prices than many of the Bordeaux first growths. The original 7-hectare (17-acre) vineyard is located on a mound where the soil is almost all clay, unlike nearby properties where there is more gravel or sand in the soil. The high clay content is particularly suitable for Merlot – a unique second layer of dense blue clay forces root systems to spread sideways. This feature is often credited with giving Petrus its soft but abundant tannins. The remaining vineyard was acquired from neighboring Château Gazin in 1969. The vines at Petrus are allowed to reach an unusually old age by Bordeaux standards. They are only replanted after 70 years.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-10T10:02:48-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-24T11:55:33-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK2402","Other_Wine","Producer_Petrus","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":3959899,"price_min":3959899,"price_max":3959899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42802513182858,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2010 | Petrus | Pomerol OWC of 6","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":3959899,"weight":73482,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/63_ab8dcff9-2354-4bd2-ba89-5b34242f982d.jpg?v=1677257773","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/62_812601b6-7da7-4f2b-8b52-d9bcff7774a1.png?v=1677257809"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/63_ab8dcff9-2354-4bd2-ba89-5b34242f982d.jpg?v=1677257773","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2010 | Petrus | Pomerol OWC of 6 at CaskCartel.com","id":24285673128074,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.978,"height":590,"width":577,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/63_ab8dcff9-2354-4bd2-ba89-5b34242f982d.jpg?v=1677257773"},"aspect_ratio":0.978,"height":590,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/63_ab8dcff9-2354-4bd2-ba89-5b34242f982d.jpg?v=1677257773","width":577},{"alt":"2010 | Petrus | Pomerol OWC of 6 at CaskCartel.com","id":24285677387914,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":600,"width":600,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/62_812601b6-7da7-4f2b-8b52-d9bcff7774a1.png?v=1677257809"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":600,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/62_812601b6-7da7-4f2b-8b52-d9bcff7774a1.png?v=1677257809","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2010 | Petrus | Pomerol OWC of 6\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis a Petrus with extraordinary balance and depth.
