Château La Fleur-Pétrus--Vintage 2000
Pomerol. Château-bottled
Tasting note: I am not convinced the 2000 La Fleur Pétrus is going to eclipse the 1998, which performed even better in a recent tasting. Nevertheless, it is a terrific effort from this estate, sandwiched between the hallowed vineyards of Pétrus and Lafleur. A deep plum/ruby color is followed by aromas of mocha, kirsch liqueur, loamy soil, spice box, and licorice. It is an opulent, medium to full-bodied, big, substantial yet elegant, precise Pomerol displaying beautiful purity. It is just beginning to drink well, and should continue to age for another 10+ years. One of the two bottles I tasted was corked. 93+ points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #189, June 2010
