The 2017 Petit-Village is all class. Sweet floral notes and silky tannins give the 2017 striking nuance and finesse to match its mid-weight personality. Time in the glass brings out the wine’s textural depth and structure nicely. In 2017, Petit-Village is marked by strong Cabernet signatures in both its flavor profile and structural feel. The tannins naturally need a few years to soften, but this has real potential. Tasted two times.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Appellation

Pomerol

Pomerol, a distinguished appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, stands as a vinous jewel celebrated for its exceptional Merlot-dominant red wines. What makes Pomerol unique is its relatively small size, allowing for an intimate focus on individual vineyards and an emphasis on artisanal winemaking. Unlike many Bordeaux regions, Pomerol does not have a formal classification system, placing the spotlight on each estate's intrinsic quality and distinct terroir. Merlot thrives in Pomerol's clay-rich soils, crafting wines of opulence, velvety texture, and alluring plum and black cherry notes. Iconic châteaux like Pétrus and Le Pin showcase the pinnacle of Pomerol's winemaking prowess. The absence of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blends further accentuates the appellation's uniqueness. Pomerol wines are revered for their approachability in youth and the ability to evolve gracefully over time, exemplifying the timeless elegance and allure of this exceptional Bordeaux appellation.

James Suckling

A tight, structured red with plenty of chocolate, dark-berry, walnut and cedar character, working together to create a complex and structured red with lots of fruit and chewy, silky tannins. Better after 2022.

Wine Advocate

There was no frost damage at Petit Village in 2017. Composed of 71% Merlot , 20% Cabernet Franc and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Petit Village displays a medium to deep garnet-purple color and needs a little coaxing to reveal notes of baked blackberries, boysenberries and plum preserves plus hints of Sichuan pepper, underbrush and iron ore. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a generous amount of black fruits with a solid, grainy frame and lovely freshness, finishing long with a spicy kick.

Wine Spectator

Caressing in feel, with creamed plum and raspberry puree flavors lined with singed sandalwood and black tea notes. A subtle mineral edge helps the finish linger. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2032. 2,125 cases made.

Jeb Dunnuck

The deeper ruby-hued 2017 Chateau Petit-Village checks in as 71% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and the balance Cabernet Sauvignon that saw malolactic fermentation in barrel and spent 16-18 months in 60% new French oak. It's a beautiful, sexy wine loaded with notions of creme de cassis, black raspberries, white flowers, toasted spice, and graphite. With medium to full body, a rounded, opulent texture, ripe tannins, and a great finish, it's a beautiful wine well worth seeking out. It should evolve for 10-12 years, if not longer.

Wine Enthusiast

This wine, from an estate under the same ownership as Pichon-Baron in Pauillac, has considerable tannin, masking the fruit. Structure is important than the fruit. While it will soften, it will probably remain dry.

Decanter

This is enjoyable, you can see that they have carefully worked the structure and the fruit, majoring on cedar and raspberry to convey some Pomerol lusciousness. A little tight through the finish, suggesting that they picked just a few days earlier than ideal. Drinking Window 2022 - 2040.
