Sorry to jump into this high flying Forum in order to correct an quite usual mistake regarding the world's most famous vineyard in Pommerol: Petrus, the king of wines and the vine of kings. Please, avoid to say Château Petrus. There is no Château whatsoever in Pommerol's Petrus. Simply, if I may underline it, say Petrus. Not only it is correct but that's the way this tremendously well known vineyard is called, since 145 BC. In any case, you obviously were lucky enough as to taste a bottle, lucky you. Cheers. One must admit that it is almost as good as a mint tea, next to a desert fire, somewhere in the dawn. Don't forget Tinab: only Petrus....
