Verkostungsnotizen
Vinous 91
The 2020 Les Perrieres de Lafleur is more backward than the 2019 with blackberry and light estuarine scents plus a dab of shucked oyster shell in the background. The palate is beautifully balanced, gentle but firm in terms of grip, with wonderful poise and density on the finish. This will probably require longer in bottle than the previous vintage, but it will reward the patient. Tasted from ex-chateau magnum at Kate & Kon’s 40-Year vertical in Austria.
Anticipated maturity: 2027-2040
