Note di degustazione
The more expensive cuvée, the 2012 La Fleur Morange, is the more serious of the siblings. Broodingly dark ruby/purple, with more cassis, black raspberry, earth and spice, it is medium to full-bodied, ripe, pure, nicely textured and long. This is consistently a top effort and ideal for drinking early on or cellaring for 10-12 years. It is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc from 80-year-old vines cropped at a lowly 25 hectoliters per hectare (14.5% alcohol).

70% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc. Inky deep crimson. Delicately sweet vanilla and light oak toastiness and an attractive touch of cigar box. Some sweet malty notes on the front palate but then good fruit length. Tannins are rounded and on the chalky side with a fine, dry finish. Well sustained and restrained. (JH)
This is big and powerful with chewy tannins and a loads of fruit. Full body, chewy tannins. Juicy. James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
