Château la Fleur de Gay--Vintage 1990
Pomerol
In original wooden case
Given the limited production of less than 1,500 cases per year, this is one of the most difficult Pomerols to obtain. I appear to have underrated the 1990 La Fleur de Gay. This outstanding wine, which has put on weight, was not embarrassed when tasted next to the 1989. It offers an opaque purple color, a sweet, jammy nose of black fruits, medium to full body, ripe tannin, and layers of extract and glycerin in its pure, supple, low acid finish. The development of the wine's character, complexity, and richness was surprising. Anticipated maturity: now-2015. Robert Paker, Wine Advocate #109 (Feb 1997)
