Château la Fleur-Pétrus 2008 has an intense color. Aromas genuine. The wine is finely balanced with impressive tension between sweet fruit acidity and tannins. A wonderful burst of perfumed minerality, fruit just ripe, complete with dark tannins. Obviously, for long aging.

La Fleur-Petrus

Situated between Châteaux Lafleur and Petrus Château La Fleur-Pétrus took its name in the 18th century. Jean-Pierre Moueix who established his wine merchant business in Libourne in 1937 purchased La Fleur-Pétrus in 1950. This historic estate on the plateau of Pomerol was his first vineyard acquisition. La Fleur-Pétrus is composed predominantly of Merlot which lends silkiness and generosity to the wine while a small percentage of Cabernet Franc contributes rigor and complexity.
