1995 Chateau Lafleur (98 Pts WS...96 Pts WA...96 Pts NM) Pomerol. No Reserve
Arrow

Description

"A '95 that exploded in the glass in contact with air. Solid and masculine, with dark chocolate and bitter mocha notes, there's big intensity here. While the tannins are burly for now, the aromas keep coming--rose petal, violet and currant backed by creamy, vanilla bean character. Elegant finish".
(98 Points).

James Suckling. (The Wine Spectator. January 2000).


"The Lafleur 1995 is turning into a stellar Pomerol after a cautious first few years. As it begins to open up, it has a sublime bouquet that is less introspective than in past examples, bestowing scents of dark cherries, blackberry, limestone and a hint of balsamic...The palate is full-bodied with dense, obdurate tannins that form its chassis that will ensure that it ages over many years. It is still a little tight, still holding something back whilst the oyster shell tinged finish is imbued with a beguiling sense of symmetry. Superb".
(96 Points).

Neal Martin. (Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. June 2012).


"Tasted at the Pomerol Comparative Exploration tasting in London, the 1995 Lafleur was broadly the same as the bottle tasted the previous year. The nose is taut at first with perhaps just a tad blue fruit than previous bottles, unfolding with those enticing gravel and meat juice aromas that lend this so much complexity. There is wondrous delineation here and like before, there is a distant scent of wild mint, perhaps fennel that emerges after 30-40 minutes. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin that have taken two decades to fully melt. There is wonderful depth, gorgeous tertiary black fruit with hints of black truffle towards prolonged finish. The 1995 is best Lafleur of the 1990s. It is as simple as that"
