A fresh, quite grassy nose. Thick and sweet with pretty severe tannins, but I think this will eventually come right. Good balance and refreshment value. (JR)

A sleeper of the vintage, this is the finest Lafleur-Gazin I have tasted in many years. The wine is deep ruby/plum/purple-colored with a sweet, sexy bouquet of over-ripe black cherries, kirsch liqueur, smoke, and spice box. The seductive, fat, concentrated palate is open-knit, and loaded with fruit, glycerin, and character. The acidity is low, the tannin ripe, and the finish succulent as well as velvety. Drink it over the next 12-15 years.

Good deep ruby. Expressive black cherry and violet aromas. Sweet and shapely, with musky and floral notes to go with the black cherry fruitiness. Tannins are firm but fine. Good subtle persistence on the aftertaste.
