Château La Fleur-Pétrus--Vintage 1998
Pomerol
Tasting note: The finest La Fleur-Pétrus I have tasted, this dense ruby/purple-coloured wine exhibits aromas and flavors of Chinese black tea, raspberries, kirsch liqueur, and flowers. Elegant, yet crammed with concentrated fruit, it is symmetrical, harmonious and long, with tremendous persistence on the palate. While not a blockbuster/heavyweight, it is a wine of finesse and richness that admirably balances power with elegance. A great success! Anticipated maturity: 2003-2020.
