Product Description
RP98 "The 2010 La Fleur-Pétrus is a striking wine that is beginning to show brilliantly today. Wafting from the glass with a deep bouquet of dark berry and cherry fruit mingled with black truffles, baking chocolate, loamy soil and subtle hints of cigar wrapper. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it's rich and layered, with an elegantly muscular profile and a long, resonant finish. This is a dramatic, sensual and beautifully balanced wine that represents the essence of Pomerol." WK for TWA Feb 2022
JS98 Fresh and clean with hazelnut, chocolate and berry character. Truffles too. Full body, with silky tannins and a tangy finish. I like the balance and finesse to this young Lafleur Petrus. So refined and beautiful.
LP97 "Medium to deep garnet in color, the 2010 La Fleur-Petrus is closed to begin, slowly unfurling to reveal notes of blueberry pie, cast-iron pan, beef dripping, and potpourri, leading to touches of cigar box and damp soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate shimmers with energy, framed by very fine, silt-like tannins and beautiful tension, finishing long and graceful." LP for TWI Jan 2023
Robert Parker writes, "This wine has a character similar to its cross-street neighbor, Petrus, displaying sweet mulberry and intense black fruit characteristics, with a hint of vanillin and loads of black cherry jam. ... Elegant but compellingly rich and authoritative, the 2010 is a truly magnificent wine for this estate, which has one of the finest terroirs in all of Pomerol." Published: Feb 27, 2013
