Dark cherry and graphite pour from the glass with remarkable intensity. The Cabernet Franc brings mineral tension and lift, while plush tannins carry waves of violet, tobacco and wet earth. Built with serious structure yet maintains an ethereal quality that sets Lafleur apart. Pure elegance.

→Lafleur is among the most sought-after estates in Pomerol, producing tiny quantities from a singular parcel of old vines on gravel and clay soils adjacent to Pétrus. Consistently one of Bordeaux's benchmark addresses.
