Richly colored, elegant, silky, fresh, ripe, refined and plummy, the wine is fresh with strong floral accents that come along with truffle, cocoa and thyme in the perfume. Soft, vibrant and with finesse to the texture, this is an exciting vintage here, if not the best ever. Give it 5 years or so bottle before pulling a cork. 91-93 Pts

Medium-bodied, soft, fresh, crisp, savory and a bit chewy on the medium-bodied palate. The wine quickly hones in on its bright, energetic red fruits. You should be able to enjoy this with only a modicum of aging. Drink from 2023-2035.

With a nose displaying flowers, spice, wet earth, licorice, cherries and plums, you also enjoy a soft textured, medium-bodied, silky textured, savory mid-palate finishing with sweet, red cherries. This is one of the best vintages I've tasted of La Fleur Gazin. Give it a few years in the bottle before pulling a cork.

08 Château La Fleur Gazin. This château is located on the plateau close to Petrus and Lafleur. The wine shows some black fruit, chocolate, and raspberry on the nose. It was made in a light style. It has a nice feel on the palate and ends with a soft, plum finish.
