  • What the experts say...

    Le 1992 arbore une robe pourpre des plus soutenues pour le millésime. Avec son nez mûr de prune, de mûre et de grillé, ses tannins assez abondants et sa faible acidité, il est moyennement corsé, merveilleusement concentré et profond. (...) Source : Robert Parker (11/94)

    The wine

    La Fleur de Gay is the domaine's grande cuvée, designed to rival the icons of Pomerol. The wine is produced from a plot of very old Merlot vines, located between Petrus and Lafleur. 18 months' ageing in new barrels results in a fruity wine with great purity and a wonderful richness. Very aromatic, intense and full-bodied, the wine reaches maturity after between five and twenty years, depending on the vintage.
