This is seductive and silky and totally delicious. Powerful rose petal and violet notes, a ripped muscular texture, smoky, juicy and full of definition. A mouthful of Pomerol goodness. Axel Marchal consultant. - Jane Anson, Decanter

A young red with clarity and transparency. Blackberry and black-truffle character,. Some walnut, too. I like the spice character to this with firm tannins and a fresh finish. Shows energy and focus. - James Suckling

A very pretty, classic Pomerol on all accounts, the 2020 Château La Fleur De Gay boasts a dense purple color to go with ample blue fruits as well as notes of tobacco, leafy herbs, and spring flowers. Playing in the medium-bodied end of the spectrum on the palate, I love its purity, and it offers ripe, polished tannins as well as notable balance. It will have 15-20 years of prime drinking. - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2020 La Fleur de Gay sports a deep purple-black color and notes of wild blueberries, chocolate-covered cherries and mulberries, plus fragrant suggestions of candied violets, cinnamon toast and clove oil. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers mouth-coating black and blue fruits with loads of spicy accents and a soft, velvety texture, lifted by just enough freshness, finishing long and fragrant. Impressive! - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine advocate
