FINE+RARE, Apr 2023

This has a dark, sweet nose – but that generosity is tamed by fresher, herbaceous notes and spicy complexity. The body is surprisingly restrained, with a crunch of tart fruit and fine-textured tannins that coat the mouth. Vibrant yet compact, the finish is chalky and savoury, with lingering notes of cedar and cocoa.

Exhibiting aromas of sweet raspberries, cedary oak and spices, the 2022 Lafleur-Gazin is medium to full-bodied, sweet and fleshy, with powdery tannins and a minty finish.

I loved the 2022 Château Lafleur-Gazin, a spicy, layered, remarkably complex Pomerol that has a rocking core of ripe red and black cherries, medium to full body, a round, layered, yet still focused and precise mouthfeel, and classic Pomerol leafy herbs, chocolate, and earthy goodness on the nose. I love it even today given its balance and elegance, yet I see no reason this shouldn't evolve gracefully over the coming 20-25 years.
