A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2012 La Fleur-Petrus is a stunning Pomerol that’s certainly up in the top tier of the vintage. Incredibly perfumed and floral, with notions of black cherries, raspberries...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2016

Tasted blind at the Southwold Bordeaux tasting. The 2012 La Fleur Pétrus has a mint-fresh bouquet, vigorous and vivid, with delineated red cherry, raspberry and cassis fruit under which is a strata of wet limestone. The...

Wine Enthusiast, May 2015

This is a beautiful ripe wine with great tannins enveloped by the velvet texture and sumptuous fruit. The château, a neighbor of Château Pétrus, has produced a concentrated wine, with bountiful Merlot richness. It...

Very perfumed with stones, dark berries, mushrooms and hints of wet earth and nutmeg shell. Full body, chewy tannins and fantastic fruit and purity. Needs time to come together but a fabulous wine for the vintage.

Wine Spectator, March 2016

One of the successes in this vintage, with alluring bay and tobacco notes already emerging from the core of lush plum, raspberry and red licorice flavors. There's a nice thread of plum pit and charcoal for spine, with...

Decanter, March 2022

Wines from this property have been gaining in complexity under scrupulous Moueix vineyard management. Quite powerful, rich and long, but short of the real class of a better vintage.

The Wine Independent, February 2023

Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2012 La Fleur-Petrus offers up closed, very subtle scents of baked cherries, prunes, and anise with faint hints of tilled soil and tobacco. The full-bodied palate is soft and elegant...

Vinous, September 2022

The 2012 La Fleur-Pétrus has a well defined nose: red fruit mixed with leather and undergrowth, wild heather and sage. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant, quite fine tannins that frame the spicy red fruit, silky...
