Pomerol AOC 2021 (750 ml.) Chateau Lafleur-Gazin
The Pomerol AOC 2021 Chateau Lafleur-Gazin reflects a vintage marked by a cool climate and low yields, resulting in elegant wines with great aromatic precision. Manual harvesting ensured careful grape selection, vinified in concrete and stainless steel tanks with extended maceration for color and complexity. The predominance of Merlot brings roundness and fruit, while Cabernet Franc adds freshness and structure. Aging for 12–18 months in partly new French oak barriques integrates spicy and toasted notes with the fruit. On the palate it is balanced and persistent, ideal with roasts, game, and aged cheeses.

CLF-POMEROL-2021
Château Lafleur-Gazin
In the heart of the Pomerol plateau, just steps from two legendary names: Château Lafleur and Château Gazin, lies Château Lafleur-Gazin, an estate that embodies the quintessential elegance and refinement of the great wines of Bordeaux's right bank. The property boasts clay and fine gravel soils, perfectly enhancing the character of Merlot, a grape variety that finds its most authentic expression here. This varietal is complemented by a precious percentage of Cabernet Franc, which lends aromatic complexity and depth to the flavors. The result is a wine with an intense and brilliant color, and a bouquet that opens with notes of ripe plum, blackberry, sweet spices, and a hint of blond tobacco, evolving over time towards earthy and mineral notes. On the palate, Château Lafleur-Gazin stands out for its silky structure, smooth tannins, and a freshness that guarantees longevity: every sip is a perfect combination of power and balance, elegance and persistence. Aging in French barriques, carefully measured so as not to overshadow the purity of the fruit, adds nuances of vanilla and delicate toastiness. This wine is capable of evolving in the bottle for decades, offering ever-new experiences to those who wait. Ideal for pairing with red meats, game, roasts, or mature cheeses, it is an excellent choice for special occasions or to enhance your cellar with a bottle of undeniable value. Château Lafleur-Gazin is not only a Pomerol of great finesse, but a living testament to Bordeaux savoir-faire, an invitation to discover the magic of a unique appellation. Available as an exclusive selection on Vino45.
