Description:
Indulge in the luxurious elegance of Chateau Lafleur Pomerol 2015, a stunning red wine that captures the essence of its prestigious terroir in Bordeaux, France. This exquisite blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers a harmonious balance of power and finesse, making it a prized addition to any connoisseur's collection.
Tasting Notes:
The 2015 vintage presents a vivid ruby color with an enticing bouquet of ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums elegantly intertwined with hints of violet, tobacco, and earthy undertones. On the palate, it reveals a rich, full-bodied texture with velvety tannins and a complex layering of dark fruit flavors accented by subtle notes of cedar and spice. The finish is long and satisfying, with a persistent mineral streak that speaks to its Pomerol lineage.
Vintage Rating:
- Lisa Perrotti Brown - 100 Points - The 2015 Lafleur is a blend of 54% Cabernet Franc and 46% Merlot. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it's profoundly scented of plum preserves, chocolate-covered cherries and blueberry pie with nuances of black olives, lavender, unsmoked cigars and cast iron pan plus a touch of Indian spices. The rich, medium to full-bodied palate is completely packed with tightly wound fragrant earth, black fruit and exotic spice layers, supported by perfectly ripe, wonderfully velvety tannins and seamless freshness. The epically long finish delivers a sum that is greater than the many compelling characters imparted on the nose and palate, whispering promises of a whole myriad of provocative finishes to discover throughout this wine's very long future. This exquisite masterpiece is not to be missed.

- Decanter: 94 points - "Richly layered and exquisitely structured, the 2015 Lafleur is an excellent display of the vintage’s potential."
