Region: France, Bordeaux, Pomerol
Grape variety: Merlot
Tasting notes: The wine is a compote of black and red fruits, very pure in character. A hint of toasted oak on the nose, with balanced acidity and freshness.
The colour is intense garnet. Very fruity and spicy, gourmand and elegant with a very nice freshness. There are notes of blackberry associated with fine blackcurrant and black cherry. Well balanced, full-bodied with a nice minerality and a smooth attack in the mouth, good structure with silky tannins, and a long good finish with spicy and leather notes.
Award: Awarded 93/100 points (Silver Medal) at the 2019 Decanter World Wine Awards
Reviews: Jeb Dunnuck Rating - 90 points (2/28/2019): A selection of the top Merlot brought up all in foudre, the 2016 Perron La Fleur offers more black cherry and blackberry fruit as well as more concentration, with a rich, mouth filling texture, plenty of spice and saddle leather notes and building tannins. It will keep for decades.
