Gorgeously integrated already, with loads of blackberry and boysenberry fruit infused with black tea and dark wood spice accents, carried by charcoal and warm earth notes. The elements sail through a large-scale finish that has remarkable cut for a wine of this size.—J.M.
19 Rene Gabriel
Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Ein berauschendes Fruchtpowerbouquet zeigend, mit einem Spiel von roten, blauen und schwarzen Beeren, mit Schokonoten und Pflaumentönen unterlegt. Im zweiten Ansatz spürt man ganz feine Nuancen von Trüffel und Tabak. In der nasalen Süsse findet man auch delikate Dropsnoten. Cremiger Gaumen mit einem Fluss wie bei einem grossen Chambertin, erhaben, ausgeglichen, harmonisch bis hin zum langen Finale. Ein grosser La Fleur-Pétrus der sich bei der Pomerol-Spitze etabliert und dort auch wohlfühlen wird. 19/20 2023 – 2055

A blend of 92% Merlot, 7.5% Cabernet Franc and 0.5% Petit Verdot, the 2015 la Fleur-Petrus is a little reticent on the nose to begin, offering up beguiling notes of tilled soil, black olives, charcuterie and dried Provence herbs over a core of preserved plums, black cherries and black raspberries with touches of tar and new leather. Full-bodied, rich, plush and seductive in the mouth, it finishes with persistent, slowly revealing earthy/savory layers, which will keep you reaching for another glass.
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.
