The 2015 Grand Village (Lafleur) is brilliant stuff and almost everything this team touches is gold. Rocking notes of kirsch, raspberries, flowers, and ample gravelly minerality all emerge from this full-bodied 2015 that has fruits, charm, and sheer sexiness of the vintage front and center, while still showing the hallmark elegance of the estate.
There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act – the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.
France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey. Whether you’re new to the world of wine or a seasoned enthusiast looking […]

A juicy red with berry and cherry character in addition to chocolate and hazelnut undertones. Full-bodied, silky and beautiful. Serious Bordeaux and made by the family that make Pomerol’s legendary Lafleur. Drink now or hold.

The 2015 Grand Village is deep garnet-purple in color with a nose of warm plums, black forest cake and spice box with notions of anise and tilled soil. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and chewy with nice freshness and plenty of juicy/earth-laced fruit to pave the long finish.

The 2015 Grand Village is ripe, plummy and seductive, just as it was from barrel. Ripe red cherry and plum fruit flesh out in this succulent, inviting wine from the Guinaudeau family. Silky tannins add to the wine's sheer appeal. Drink it over the next decade or so.

A wine to look out for, harnessing the expertise of the Lafleur team. The vines are on the borders of Saillans village in Fronsac, planted on clay limestone soils. The overall feel is beautifully juicy and fresh, marked by redcurrant notes, florality and blonde tobacco that is often brought out in Cabernet Franc on the right bank. This has real freshness, even in such a hot and dry year, with a flourish of minerality on the finish. 25% new oak. Drinking Window 2018 - 2026.
