Bordeaux Supérieur

A blend of 91% Merlot and 9% Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), the 2023 Grand Village has a deep garnet-purple color. It shoots from the glass with notes of iron ore, black olives, crushed rocks, and fragrant soil, giving way to a core of fresh black plums and boysenberries. The full-bodied palate has compelling tension, with loads of minerally sparks coming of the black fruit flavors, supported by a grainy texture, finishing long and savory.

Vivid fruit, juicy texture, this is a concentrated Grand Village with plenty of dense red and blue fruits, delivered with fresh acidities that reflect the clay limestone soils. Mouthwatering signoff. Higher levels of Merlot this year than usual because all of the Cabernet Franc is in Les Perrières.

Inside Bordeaux

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored. Comes skipping out with notes of red currants and wild strawberries, plus nuances of dusty soil and lavender. The light to medium-bodied palate is graceful and refreshing with silky tannins and a red berry lift on the finish.

A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), the 2022 Grand Village has a deep garnet-purple color. It flies out of the glass with vibrant scents of black and red cherries, black raspberries, unsmoked cigars, and fallen leaves, plus touches of lavender and black pepper. 

The attention to detail in the vineyard of Grand Village is just as you might expect from the Lafleur team, and makes a big difference in years like 2021 when the windows to react are so tiny. In bottle the aromatics centre on florality reflecting the cool vintage, with violet and peony flavours. Attractive balance and finesse, lighter shades of red and blue fruits with a juicy finish, this does a great job at walking the line, recommend looking out for this wine. Harvest from September 29 to October 7. A rare wine in 2021 at this level of price.

The 2020 Grand Village is a blend of 79% Merlot and 21% Cabernet Franc. A very deep garnet-black in color, it swans out of the glass with showy notes of preserved plums, blueberry compote, and chocolate-covered cherries with hints of Indian spices, violets, and tar. The full-bodied palate is rich, concentrated, and oh-so-velvety, delivering mouth-coating black fruits and exotic spices, supported by a lively backbone and finishing with great length.

Amateur

Dufter av eiketoner, sjokolade, tobakk. Smaken er mer fruktdrevet. Noe moden med silkemyke tekstur. Middels lav syre. Det er fortsatt skarpe tanniner som trenger mat. Høy alkohol som merkes. Den har teksturen og fruktprofilen til en høy klasse Bordeaux, men med mindre intensitet.
