White pepper and herbal complexity showcase the Cabernet Franc influence beautifully. Medium-bodied with refined structure and excellent mid-palate detail, though the finish shows some compression. Entering a closed phase now that should reward patience.

Lafleur

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.
