Château Pétrus: The Pinnacle of Quality and Rarity
Renowned for its exceptional quality and rarity, Château Pétrus has surpassed even the prestigious First Growths, becoming one of the most expensive wines traded globally. While the First Growths produce over 20,000 cases annually, Pétrus yields a mere 2,500 cases.
Situated in Pomerol, the warmest among Bordeaux’s renowned wine regions, there is no other wine that rivals Pétrus in both elegance and aging potential. Truly, its terroir can only be described as a blessing from the gods.
Christian Moueix, the brilliant winemaker and owner who has nurtured Pétrus and many other legendary estates, is a great admirer of Japanese culture. His favorite authors include Jun’ichirō Tanizaki, Yasunari Kawabata, and Yukio Mishima. As we enter the autumn season, why not savor a glass of fine wine while immersing yourself in a good book?
