The estate

Vinification and aging
Manual harvesting between September 26 and October 10. Density sorting. Parcel-by-parcel vinification in concrete vats and temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Aging in barrels for 15 to 16 months. 75% new barrels, 25% one-year-old barrels.

Characteristics and tasting recommendations for Château La Fleur 2019

Tasting

Color
Beautiful purple color with violet highlights.

Nose
On the nose, notes of blackcurrant, redcurrants and small dark berries burst forth from the glass and immediately charm.

Palate
On the palate, the attack is fruity then evolves into a balanced and elegant mid-palate. The tannins are precise and well integrated, conferring a juicy structure.
