Château Lafleur-Gazin is an 8.5-hectare estate in Pomerol that has in recent years made huge strides forwards in quality and consistency. The 2016 is a wonderfully juicy, voluptuous and effortlessly balanced release composed of 94% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc. It has plenty of youthful appeal and, indeed, can be consumed young if decanted, but there is also much to suggest it will cellar well for between 10 and 15 years.

Vinous
The 2016 Lafleur-Gazin has improved since its rather middling showing out of barrel. It offers ripe red cherry, kirsch and violets on the nose, the floral element becoming more intense with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded, supple tannin, and denser compared to recent vintages, displaying spicebox and a touch of white pepper toward the finish. A useful Pomerol from the JP Moueix range. Neal Martin1st January 2019
