The 1961 La Fleur-Petrus exhibited a sweet, black truffle aroma that was similar to the 1961 Lafleur, but not nearly the quantity of fruit or viscosity of that wine. Elegant, expansive, and ripe, with outstanding balance, richness and length, this is a fully mature, beautifully preserved wine for drinking over the next 10-15 years.
The notes for this wine are taken from the description of Series III - Flight D of the 1995 tasting conducted in Munich by Helga and Hardy Rodenstock. Many years after the tasting from which this note derives allegations were made concerning the authenticity of old and rare bottles of wine sold by Hardy Rodenstock to collectors around the world. The matter has been the subject of numerous articles, litigation and at least one book. Mr. Parker believes that the wines served to him at this tasting were authentic so this note and the others from that specific tasting continue to be posted on eRobertParker.com.
