Note di degustazione
The stunning 2010 La Fleur de Gay has beautiful aromatics of violets, roses, blackberries, cedar, tobacco and spice, which carry through to a palate of gorgeous texture and richness. This is a glorious Pomerol from 2010, a wine that is approachable now but will keep for a few decades. asianpalate.com

Chewy and fruity, with blackberry and chocolate aromas and flavors. Full and tight tannins. Slightly one dimensional but should develop nicely. A little disappointing. jamessuckling.com
Velvety from the start, with alluring mocha, raspberry, black tea and crushed plum notes. There's an alluring whiff of smoke on the finish. Builds and builds. Long. James Molesworth, winespectator.com
Tasted at the Circle de Rive Droite. The La Fleur du Gay has a beautiful, floral, almost Margaux-like nose with blueberry, cases and dark plum intertwined with great mineralité. The palate is very well defined and quite linear, good grip with firm dry tannins cloaked in ripe dark berried fruit. My only concern is that is cuts away surprisingly abruptly towards the shellfish-tinged finish. This should mellow during élevage and possibly merit a higher score in a couple of years.
