Expect a deep, brooding Pomerol that layers dense black raspberry and plum fruit with cool minerals, cigar box and a touch of mint, all carried by powerful yet amazingly refined tannins. Chateau Lafleur 2015 feels tightly coiled and intellectual rather than showy, with incredible depth and a long, resonant finish that hints at decades of evolution.

Château Lafleur by Château Lafleur is one of Pomerol’s most coveted and rare reds, a tiny 4–4.5 ha “boutique” grand vin planted in an unusually equal mix of Merlot and Cabernet Franc (Bouchet) on a complex mosaic of clay- and gravel-based soils opposite Château Pétrus. This distinctive cépage and low-yield, rigorously traditional viticulture yield a powerful yet refined wine of great minerality, floral lift, and longevity, often described as among Bordeaux’s most individualistic and ageworthy wines.
