Description
Robert Parker: Sadly, there are only 1,000 cases of the brilliant
2004 Lafleur (because of the strict selection implemented by
proprietor Jacques Guinaudeau and his son, Baptiste). A blend of
60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc, the 2004 presently possesses a
certain austerity, along with fabulous concentration, and intense
kirsch liqueur, licorice, truffle, and spice characteristics.
Stunningly proportioned, medium to full-bodied, and powerful, it
comes across like a modern day version of Lafleur’s brilliant 1979.
The aromatics can fill a room, but the tannins kick in in the
mouth. Give this Pomerol 5-8 years of cellaring, and drink it over
the following 25+.
