The 2021 La Fleur Peyrabon has a very fine bouquet of blackberry, bilberry and crushed iris that blossoms in the glass with fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite saline in the mouth with gentle grip toward the finish. No, not one of the better-known Pauillac wines, but this has plenty to offer in a more challenging vintage.
The 2021 La Fleur Peyrabon was tasted twice. The first felt out of sorts. The second was much better, offering graphite-infused black fruit, a good midpalate and a straightforward, licorice-tinged finish. This should drink well for 8–12 years.
A little diluted through the mid palate, but this has some juicy character to the blueberry and redcurrant fruits, harvest October 1 to 7. 4ha in Pauillac. Eric Boissenot consultant.
