Chateau Lafleur Gazin 2023

---

This curious name comes from the château’s location, on the northern edge of the plateau of Pomerol, between Châteaux Gazin and La Fleur-Pétrus. Lafleur-Gazin has been produced by Ets. Jean-Pierre Moueix since 1976. Aromas of orange rind and exotic spices. The palate offers toasty raspberry fruit – an intense attack – followed by a cedary raspberry-fruited mid-palate of medium body and upbeat momentum. Coffee bean and violets on the finish. Delicious, in an unadorned way. This will spend 16-18 months in French oak barrels (30-40% new).
