6 Flaschen Les Perrières de Lafleur 2021 in Holzkiste

Robert Parker: "A wine that's liable to rival and indeed surpass the 2019 and 2018, the 2021 Les Perrières de Lafleur offers up a beautifully pure bouquet of raspberries, violets, rose petals, tobacco smoke and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, it's concentrated and chiseled, with a bright spine of acidity, ultra-refined tannins and a long, intensely saline finish. It's a blend of 59% Merlot and 41% massal selection Cabernet Franc taken from Château Lafleur." (94-95+)

Jeb Dunnuck: "A wine that was first made in 2018, the 2021 Les Perrières De Lafleur comes from pure limestone soils in Fronsac and vines that were a massale selection from Lafleur. The blend is 60% Bouchet (an old variety of Cabernet Franc) and 40% Merlot, and it offers a vivid ruby hue to go with beautiful notes of ripe cherries, cassis, chalky minerality, and white flowers. More pure, focused, and tight on the palate, it has tons of salinity and obvious minerality, terrific tannins, and a great finish. It's a beautiful wine that excels in the vintage." (92-94)
