Toasty, spiced dark fruit on the nose and something herbal – rosemary? Plus a touch of vanilla. Subtle but complex. Dry and firm and quite a grip on the palate and tangy cassis freshness. Slightly dry on the finish at the moment. (JH)
Performing better from bottle than it did from barrel, this is a classic, elegant La Fleur-Petrus (in contrast to the blockbuster 2006) offering hints of kirsch liqueur, soy, and resiny pine forest notes. Elegant, medium-bodied, fresh, and pure, it is best drunk over the next 14-15 years.
Full red. Slightly medicinal aromas of redcurrant, plum, chocolate and herbs, along with a peppery nuance. Supple in texture but a bit subdued, with restrained sweetness and notes of herbs and minerals. I find this in an awkward stage today, and a tad dry and green on the back, but there's firm spine and sneaky flavor intensity here.
