It is no secret that the Moueix family has been attempting to elevate the quality of the wine produced at this vineyard that bears the name of two of Pomerol's greatest wines - Lafleur and Petrus. A new cellar has been built, crop thinning is routinely employed, and the age of the vines has become more respectable. Perhaps La Fleur-Petrus will begin to live up to its grandiose name. The excellent 1992 offers a deep ruby/purple color, and a big, sweet, jammy nose of black fruits, caramel and vanillin. Ripe, rich, medium-bodied, with excellent density, this concentrated, elegant yet powerful wine should drink exceptionally well during its first 8-15 years of life.
