Chateau Lafleur 2010
| 6 bottles per lot Original closed case. Regular height, clean labels, excellent appearance 38% merlot, 62% cabarnet franc. Giant wine from one of the most significant and special chateaux in Pomerol and Bordeaux in one of the best harvests RP 99, WS 97 Tasted blind as a vintage comparison at the Valandraud vertical, the 2010 Lafleur put in an absolutely no holds barred astonishing performance. Lafleur is wont to improve in bottle and this is certainly the case apropos the 2010. It has a boisterous ripe blackberry, cranberry, sous-bois and graphite-scented bouquet that is an absolute beauty. Power mixed with quite brilliant precision, you almost want to laugh at its sheer audacity. The palate is mediumbodied with very fine tannin; there is immense depth and wonderful cohesion. Mineral-drenched black fruit, a slightly chalky texture and outstanding energy and tension on the finish - this is a magnificent Pomerol from the Guinaudeau family. Tasted December 2016. Neal Martin, Feb 2017. |
