Chateau Lafleur 2018

Lafleur er nok den sværeste vin at finde i Bordeaux. Med rette en kultvin, ren elegance og en symbiose af Petrus og Le Pin. 100/100

Suckling om: Chateau Lafleur

The sweetness of fruit in the center palate is incredible with a ripe-plum and currant undertone. Very aromatic already. Full-bodied, tight and compressed with a tannin quality that folds beautifully into the wine. Incredible finish. Such, such power with finesse. Tight but glorious at this stage. 100/100

Galloni om: Chateau Lafleur

The 2018 Lafleur is mesmerizing. What a wine! The aromatics alone are spellbinding. There is no need to actually taste the 2018 to know how profound it is. Silky and caressing, with phenomenal persistence, the 2018 is a total knock-out. Spice, cedar, blood orange, sage, mint, rose petal and kirsch all race out of the glass, saturating the palate with a dazzling concoction of aromas, textures and flavors. Readers lucky enough to find it should not hesitate. 100/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Lafleur

The Grand Vin 2018 Château Lafleur from this magical terroir checks in as 54% Cabernet Franc and 46% Merlot that comes only from the more gravelly soils of the vineyard and spent 15 months in 25% new French oak. It's as good as any wine can get and has a layered, multi-dimensional style that marries power with elegance as only this estate can do. Offering notes of black raspberries, tobacco, truffly earth, spring flowers, and chocolate, it's full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, but nevertheless is as weightless as they come, offering this "je ne sais quoi" character that's hard to describe. It's more backward and reserved than the Pensées and is going to take a decade of bottle age to hit maturity, but it's a desert Island wine if there ever was one. 100/100

Chateau Lafleur

Det legendariske Chateau Lafleur har kun 4,5 hektar vinstokke, men de er plantet på dyb grusjord blandet med jern og sand. Vinstokkene er meget gamle, fordi Lafleur blev skånet for frosten i 1956 og ikke behøvede at blive plantet helt om.
