2017 Château La Fleur-Pétrus, Pomerol

An impressive nose, with complex and pure whole berry fruit. There's impressive structure and finely judged tannins - they're ripe and coat the mouth. The finish goes on with suppleness and subtlety for minutes.

TASTING NOTES

This rolls over the palate with dark berries, dark chocolate and hints of cedar. Medium to full body, tight tannins and a lovely tension. Shows finesse and beauty.
