Château La Fleur-Pétrus is one of Pomerol’s crown jewels—an estate with deep roots and an enviable address.
Nestled on the plateau between Château Lafleur, Le Pin, and the legendary Pétrus, this historic vineyard has been in the Moueix family since 1950.
With prime parcels of gravel and clay soils ranging from 33 to 38 meters in elevation, the terroir delivers wines that are equal parts power and poise. Merlot dominates the blend, offering plush texture and depth, while Cabernet Franc brings structure and elegance. A touch of Petit Verdot completes the symphony with a whisper of spice.
The 2015 vintage is a masterclass in balance—rich, seductive, and vibrant, with astonishing depth and length. The wine unfurls in layers: dark plum, blackberry, licorice, violets, savory herbs, and a pulse of earth and graphite that speaks to its pedigree. Critics were unanimous in their praise, awarding near-perfect scores across the board.
For those who want a taste of Pomerol’s finest without the Petrus price tag, La Fleur-Pétrus offers unmatched value. The 2015 is drinking beautifully now with a decant, but has decades ahead in the cellar. A must-have for collectors seeking classic Right Bank character with polish and pedigree.
