The 2025 La Fleur-Pétrus is one of the few wines in Pomerol that shows a certain finesse in this very hot, dry year. Rose petal, macerated cherry, blood orange and exotic spice are all beautifully knit together. Medium in body, with gorgeous mid-palate pliancy and fine balance, La Fleur-Pétrus has a lot to offer. Floral overtones reappear to brighten the finish. 04/2026

The 2025 La Fleur-Pétrus was picked September 1 to 19 and matured in 50% new oak. This was another sample that demanded aeration to remove a bit of reduction on the nose. Enticing raspberry, wild strawberry and touches of leather unfurl on the nose, certainly on the more elegant side. The palate is well balanced, with lithe tannins, well judged acidity, very harmonious, with an almost "sleek" finish that just glides. Very seductive Pomerol in the making. 05/2026

Along with Trotanoy, the 2025 La Fleur-Pétrus is one of the more powerful, massive wines in the Mouiex portfolio this year. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet dark fruits, black truffle and a deft touch of new oak, it's full-bodied, ample and layered, with ripe, polished tannins despite its power, good energy and a seamless, integrated profile. 04/2026

A serious, complex Pomerol, the 2025 Château La Fleur-Pétrus is 97% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot from deep clay soils on the higher plateau that will spend 16-18 months in 50% new French oak. It has that classic La Fleur-Pétrus complexity on the nose, with sweet red and black fruits, flowery incense, spice, and leafy herbs. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a layered, seamless mouthfeel, polished tannins, and a great finish. 05/2026

Assemblage : 97 % Merlot, 3 % Petit Verdot. Elevage : 16-18 mois en barriques de chêne (50 % neuves). Vendanges du 1er au 19 septembre. 04/2026
