Château La Fleur 2020

A delicate and aromatic Saint-Émilion Grand Cru

The estate

Located on the right bank of the Bordeaux region, the Château La Fleur is a beautiful estate classified as a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru appellation and owned by the Dassault family. Château La Fleur offers wines reflecting the typical expression of the great terroirs of Saint-Émilion.

The vineyard

Château La Fleur benefits from an exceptional vineyard spanning 27.8 hectares, of which 24.5 hectares are in production, on the northern plateau of Saint-Émilion. At an average age of 33 years, the vines are planted on clay-limestone soils.

Winemaking and aging

Hand-harvested, the grapes undergo density sorting and parcel-by-parcel vinification in concrete vats and temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The parcel aging lasts 15 to 16 months in barrels (60% new barrels, 36% once-used barrels and 4% in amphorae).

Blend

The Château La Fleur 2020 is the result of a blend of merlot (92%), cabernet franc (6%), cabernet sauvignon (2%).
