La Fleur Petrus Pomerol, 2016

La Fleur-Pétrus 2016 is a standout Pomerol from one of Bordeaux’s most admired appellations, offering the depth and finesse that have made the Right Bank so sought after. Produced in a prized setting between some of Pomerol’s most famous estates, it combines concentration, elegance, and a distinctly polished style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this typically shows a deep ruby to garnet colour with excellent vibrancy for the vintage. The nose is layered and refined, with aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, violet, graphite, and subtle spice, often developing hints of cedar, truffle, and mocha with time in bottle. On the palate, it is plush yet structured, with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a core of dark fruit balanced by earthy and mineral notes. The 2016 vintage suggests strong ageing potential, and this wine should continue to evolve beautifully for many years, gaining complexity and silkiness over time.

Production
La Fleur-Pétrus comes from the Pomerol plateau and its gravelly-clay soils, a terroir well suited to producing rich, expressive Merlot-based wines with natural depth and texture. Grapes are typically harvested with close attention to ripeness and parcel selection, then vinified to preserve purity of fruit, precision, and the elegant character of the estate.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, beef fillet, duck breast, veal, and dishes featuring mushrooms or truffle. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young, especially to allow the aromatics and tannins to open fully.

Producer
La Fleur-Pétrus is a historic Pomerol estate with a strong reputation for producing refined, cellar-worthy wines that reflect the appellation’s prestige. Over time, it has become known as one of the benchmark properties of the Right Bank, admired for its consistency, elegance, and ability to age gracefully.
