Château Petit Village (Pomerol)
The color shows its age, and then some. The wine is fully mature, medium bodied, with more secondary notes on the nose than fruit. In the finish, the wine shows ripe strawberries with an herbaceous quality in the end note. This requires drinking sooner than later. 2,352 Views Tasted Mar 30, 2017 |

Château Petit Village (Pomerol)
Medium-bodied, bright, earthy, fresh and focused more on its secondary notes than the receding plums and cherries. The finish is on the austere, firm side. This is not a wine to hold for development. 2,013 Views Tasted Aug 25, 2021 |

Château Petit Village (Pomerol)
Shockingly light for the vintage. There is no reason to buy wines like this for the type of money being charged. The good news is, starting with 2006, Stephen Derenoncourt is in charge of the winemaking so things should start improving rapidly 5,024 Views Tasted Jan 20, 2008 |

Secondary aromas are in full force with their woodsy, earthy character.

Château Petit Village (Pomerol)
Disappointing for the vintage, the wine is light in color and fruit, with a bright, overly fresh, red berry component that is there in the wine from start to finish. On the bright side, the wines being produced here today are much better. I would not be holding this wine for further evolution, as there is not just not enough stuffing to make it more interesting as the years go on. 3,013 Views Tasted Oct 26, 2016 |

If you own a bottle, pop a cork as this is the right time to be enjoying the truffle, cocoa and cherry infused wine. Medium bodied, with soft textures, the wine delivers a nice, cherry filled finish. This is not going to make old bones. It's probably best enjoyed over the next 3-5 years. 3,616 Views Tasted Jul 9, 2013 |

Château Petit Village (Pomerol)
For its age, the wine still showed good color. The wine offered a surprising amount of heft, earthy, tobacco laden plums and a touch of forest leaf. The fruit was ripe, and still served up a nice sweetness. The wine was not very complex, but it was fun tasting the property before they pulled out all their old-vine Merlots, replacing them with Cabernet Sauvignon. 2,631 Views Tasted Jan 19, 2020 |

It has been so long since I last tasted this wine, I forgot I had tasted it before. The wine is on the light side, with hints of dried flowers, floral stems, cedar, bright red fruits, and tobacco.

Drink from 2023-2028. 1,696 Views Tasted Dec 14, 2023This is traditionally styled, slightly austere Pomerol that is on the downside. Drink up. 2,598 Views Tasted Jun 27, 2009 |
