Pomerol, France

WineSaint
Cassis and dark chocolate flow with impressive weight and density. Cedar and graphite add complexity to the concentrated core. Polished tannins provide structure without overwhelming the generous fruit. Exceptional quality for a second wine that outperforms many Grand Vins from the vintage. Drink 2025-2040.

→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.
