Note di degustazione
Showing well, the 2014 Château La Fleur-Pétrus is round and layered, with lots of truffly, floral notes as well as fine tannins on the palate. Medium-bodied and elegant, it has a seamless, supple mouthfeel and a refined, pretty style best enjoyed over the coming 12-15 years.

The 2014 La Fleur-Pétrus has a bright, appealing nose that is not dissimilar to L'Eglise-Clinet: red berry fruit, marmalade, cedar, just a dab of aniseed, all well-defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and well-judged acidity that imparts tension. White pepper and cinnamon complement the savory red fruit towards the finish. This is perfect to drink now but will last a few more years. N.B. Another bottle tasted blind feels just a little Bretty. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year-On tasting.
Tasted blind. Deep core, bricky rim. Lots of minty/leafy lift with undergrowth coming through. But there’s decent depth of fruit and the tannins are smooth and compact, still resolving. (JH)
Love the caressing, grilled soot and campfire of this, a litlte more intrusive on these notes than you would find in La Fleur Pétrus today perhaps, buts it is backed up by rich fruits, blackberry, lemongrass, smoked earth, good balance and a ton of appellation typicity. 50% new oak.
