Château La Fleur-Pétrus | Pomerol
Red wine | France, POMEROL | 2019
Delightful aromas of truffle, tobacco, mocha and ripe blackberry. Incredibly refined and layered on the palate. A generous complexity where the blackcurrants, blackberries and dark cherries are joined by flavours of chocolate, liquorice and a touch of minerality. This elegant, yet so complex, Pomerol is one to cherish.

About Ch. Lafleur Pétrus
Situated between Châteaux Lafleur and Petrus, Château La Fleur-Pétrus took its name in the 18th century. Jean-Pierre Moueix, who established his wine merchant business in Libourne in 1937, purchased La Fleur-Pétrus in 1950. This historic estate on the plateau of Pomerol was his first vineyard acquisition. La Fleur-Pétrus is composed predominantly of Merlot, which lends silkiness and generosity to the wine, while a small percentage of Cabernet Franc contributes rigor and complexity.
