La Fleur Petrus 2014

The 2014 La Fleur-Pétrus has a bright, appealing nose that is not dissimilar to L'Eglise-Clinet: red berry fruit, marmalade, cedar, just a dab of aniseed, all well-defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and well-judged acidity that imparts tension. White pepper and cinnamon complement the savory red fruit towards the finish. This is perfect to drink now but will last a few more years. N.B. Another bottle tasted blind feels just a little Bretty. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year-On tasting.
