Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points

A structured wine from this small 17-acre Pauillac cru bourgeois this shows weight intense black-currant fruitiness and density from the high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. Dark and brooding it's likely to age for many years.

James Suckling: 92 Points

Wow. This shows wonderful blackberries licorice and flower character. Full body silky tannins and a long finish. Very impressive. Better in 2015 but gorgeous now.

Opaque ruby/purple with notes of lead pencil shavings cedar wood black currants forest floor and some oak the wine performs like a classified growth. Full-bodied and rich with striking purity texture and a long 30-second finish this wine should drink nicely for up to 15 or more years. A sensational Pauillac from this overachieving estate La Fleur Peyrabon?s 2010 is a blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest mostly Merlot with some Petit Verdot.
