2022 Château La Fleur-Pétrus, Pomerol

The vineyards of La Fleur-Pétrus lie in three sectors, all on the central Pomerol plateau. Partly they are close to Pétrus itself, partly they are from adjoining land, planted mainly with old Merlots, which was acquired in the mid-1990s. During the 2000s, further primely positioned vines were purchased, located around Château Hosanna and between Trotanoy and Le Pin. 96.5% Merlot, with 3% Cabernet Franc and 0.5% Petit Verdot make up the blend in 2022. Glistening ruby-purple in the glass, aromas are intensely concentrated, recalling red and black cherries – sweet, spicy and freshly fragrant. Full and broadly built, tightly-woven fruit flavours unfurl on the palate revealing a wine of underlying power and great depth. Texture is luscious and rounded, the finish being super-fine and gloriously long. Quality at this property seems to get better and better, and this is undoubtedly one of the most stunningly harmonious wines of the vintage (for drinking 2030-2045+).
