The 2010 Château La Fleur-Pétrus is an outstanding Pomerol from one of the appellation's most prestigious estates, situated between the celebrated vineyards of Pétrus and Lafleur. The exceptional 2010 vintage showcases the estate's Merlot-led blend with remarkable depth, structure and finesse. The nose is richly layered with aromas of black cherry, blackberry and plum, complemented by violet, truffle, cedar, graphite and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is full-bodied with silky, beautifully integrated tannins and vibrant acidity that gives the wine remarkable balance. Flavours of ripe dark berries, cassis, cocoa and liquorice are framed by mineral notes and finely judged French oak, leading to a long, elegant finish. Now entering a superb stage of maturity, it offers both immediate enjoyment and the capacity for further evolution.
Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for collectors and lovers of classic Pomerol. Pair with beef fillet, roast lamb, duck breast, venison, mushroom dishes or aged hard cheeses. Enjoy now with a generous decant or cellar confidently for the next 15–20 years as it continues to develop additional complexity.
