00: Dunkles Granat mit rubinem Schimmer. Herrliches Maulbeerenspiel, Pflaumen und rotes Cassis; fein mit burgundischem Touch. Im Gaumen saftig, samtige Textur, herrliche Balance zwischen roten und blauen Früchten, im Finale Black Currant und Vanille – ein femininer Pomerol mit Klasse. (18/20). 08: Aufhellendes Granat, feine Verfärbung am Rand. Herrlich süsses Bouquet, rote Pflaumen und Süssholz, sanft kompottig im Ansatz, zeigt Rückhalt mit zuerst kernigen Nuancen die nicht so ganz mit den anderen Komponenten mit gereift sind. Lag just beim Entkorken einen Punkt tiefer. Nach zwei Stunden zeigte sich der Wein fülliger, mit feiner Pomerolsüsse und viel gastronomischer Eleganz. austrinken ( - 2015)

This 1999 is performing well, with more power and depth after bottling than before. It exhibits a dense ruby color as well as a sweet nose of pure black cherry jam intermixed with hints of raspberry, new wood, and earth. It is surprisingly powerful for a 1999, with admirable ripeness, sweet tannin, and low acidity. Two to three years of cellaring is warranted. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2015.

Fresh and bright aromas of crushed berries and minerals. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a fresh, fruity aftertaste. Best after 2003. 4,165 cases made. ?JS
Producer
Château La Fleur-Pétrus
This historic château is owned by the Jean-Pierre Moueix family. Planted amongst the finest terroirs in all of Pomerol, Château La Fleur-Pétrus has been a model of consistency for over three decades. During the ‘90s and the first decade of the 21st century, the estate was expanded with the addition of a few precious parcels from Pomerol’s central plateau. This evolution was accompanied by the restoration of an elegant country house, which now houses the production facilities at the heart of Pomerol. Today, Château La Fleur-Pétrus produces one of the most elegant, smooth and refined Pomerols in all of Bordeaux. The Grand Vin is a medium-bodied Merlot and Cabernet Franc blend that with several years of cellaring will become very fine, complex and extraordinarily long-lived.
