Bordeaux Supérieur

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.

WSET 3

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 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.

Earthy with softly smoked earth, muscular tannins, cherry pit, raspberry, peony and salted cracker finish. They are increasing the massal selection from Lafleur vine stock in this wine for the Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), which helps give this saline kick on the finish. Harvest September 9 to 23. 30% new oak, 10ha vineyard after restructuring.

Inside Bordeaux

A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc (Bouchet), the 2021 Grand Village has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. It leaps from the glass with gregarious notes of lilacs, cinnamon toast, and black pepper, giving way to a core of Morello cherries and black raspberries. Medium-bodied, the palate is lively and plush, bursting with red berry and spicy flavors, finishing long and lifted.

Amatør

Black cherries, well-paced through the palate, with spiced cocoa bean, turmeric, cumin, espresso, a plus centre, exceptional quality for the appellation, reflecting the care and attention taken by the Guinaudeau family of Château Lafleur.
