Château Lafleur-Gazin 2010 – Pomerol

The nose is fresh, elegant and offers a certain delicacy as well as a small intensity. It reveals notes of ripe wild blackberry, small wild fruits, small notes of ripe wild strawberry associated with touches of cornflower, clove, sweet spices as well as hints of humus, underwood and a discreet hint of pepper. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers a certain suavity, precision, a small straightness, juiciness, a small tension as well as energy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe wld blackberry, quite ripe cassis, small notes of quite ripe raspberry associated with touches of cornflower, violet as well as hints of camphor, underwood, almond, fine hints of tonka bean and a hint of humus. Tannins are well-built. A very discreet almost saline/sapid hint in the finish/persistence.
