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.

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
