A medium-to full-bodied red with vibrant acidity and firm, fine tannins. Bright and polished with berries, walnuts, spices and dried flowers. Milk chocolate, too. Spicy and pretty finish.
The 2021 Château LaFleur-Gazin should be outstanding, offering a medium-bodied, charming, mid-weight style as well as pretty aromatics. Notes of cassis and black raspberries, subtle oak, and some spice all define this forward, enjoyable, balanced 2021 that will drink nicely right out of the gate.
Dark chocolate-laced wild berries on the nose, hints of fresh raspberries and touches of violet. This has a soft chew on the palate, the tannins giving a plumpness to the texture and giving the fruit a more pronounced, supple frame. This has a lovely refinement to it, the fruit has purity and a crystalline quality while there is depth on the mid-palate to go the long haul. Sleek yet layered with plenty of terroir markers in the soft chalkiness and graphite tone on the tongue. Everything feels in place with hints of Pomerol glamour and completeness. Great!
Modest in scale, but fresh and focused, with a pretty beam of cassis and blackberry fruit speckled with a savory edge. Ends with light floral and red tea notes, showing sneaky overall length too. Drink now through 2035.
