Château La Fleur-Pétrus is a Pomerol estate that has been owned by the négociant house Jean-Pierre Moueix since 1952. Its main vineyard is located across the road from Château Pétrus and covers approximately 19 hectares, planted chiefly to Merlot. The 2009 vintage is now a balanced and well-integrated wine, brimming with notes of raspberries and mulberries.

Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2009 la Fleur-Pétrus rolls out of the glass with sensuous kirsch, black cherry preserves and chocolate box scents with touches of unsmoked cigars, dried mint and star anise. Full-bodied, rich and opulently fruited in the mouth, it has beautiful red fruit sparks and a finely grained frame, finishing long and lively. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Vivid plum colour, this is intense and rippled on the opening, with spiced rosemary and espresso, quickly softens to show supple tannins and grilled cumin and turmeric spice. Great quality, gourmet, soft landing.Jane Anson10th October 2024

The 2009 La Fleur-Pétrus is tightly wound on the nose at first with plenty of black truffle infused red fruit, crushed rose petals and veins of dark chocolate, but it does not quite possess the amplitude of say, the 2009 Le Gay. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip and good tension. Pure red and black fruit intermingle with balsamic and white pepper notes, displaying fine precision and length. This Pomerol gets better as it goes along, but I feel that the aromatics need to just up their game. Tasted at BI Wines & Spirits' Ten Year On tasting. Neal Martin1st March 2019

Heady and richly satiny textured. Meaty and minerals. Lovely. Dry finish. But so gorgeous on the palate. Lovely stuff at this stage. So fresh after sumptuous black fruit. Relatively open. (JR)
