At tasting, the wine reveals a deep red color. On the nose, the wine is expressive and complex, and plays on its oaky and spicy fragrances. On the palate, the Chateau La Fleur Peyrabon 2011 shows a great richness and a lovely dimension that is characterized with touches of cherry liqueur. The finish of this wine is elegant and of great power.
One of a handful of Cru Bourgeois from the Pauillac appellation, this wine exhibits a saturated dark ruby/plum color in addition to a sweet bouquet of black cherries and black currants, good acidity, ripe tannin and a moderately endowed character. This is a well-made Cru Bourgeois to consume over the next decade.
