Description
Château Lafleur, Pomerol
With just 4.5 hectares of vineyards (located right across the way from famed Château Pétrus, Lafleur is one of Pomerol’s ultra-exclusive garagiste-scale properties. This elegant and beautifully mature ’97 delivers incredibly complex perfume (thanks at least in part to a relatively high percentage of Cabernet Franc, usually around 50%) and earthy bass notes. And there’s still plenty of life left, as one would expect from elite Bordeaux. This is one of the Right Bank’s greatest treasures!
