Note di degustazione
The 1966 Lafleur is a magnificent Pomerol. From magnum, it has a beguiling bouquet that just feels so effortless, wonderfully detailed and natural with hints of coniferous trees and ground pebbles. It is a quintessential Robin-era Lafleur. The palate is also so complete and natural, a rare case of a "blue-blooded" Lafleur that has an evolved Left Bank personality. It is so stunning that I wonder if I was just lucky to encounter this example. Would another bottle match up? Somehow, I doubt it. Tasted at the Attersee vertical and taken from the "Pomerol" book.

Tasted 7 Times With Consistent Notes Along with Palmer and Latour, Lafleur is consistently one of the finest wines of the vintage. This 1966 magnum displays a deep ruby/purple color with slight amber at the rim. It offers the essence of black-cherry flavors intertwined with wet stone and cold steel notes, full body, super concentration, admirable structure, magnificent depth and delineation, massive reserves of fruit, and an amazingly long finish. It is approaching full maturity and should last for 20-25 more years.
