Second de La Fleur offers a fresh and expressive aromatic palette allowing the youngest plots of this vineyard to reveal their potential.
This wine offers a very nice balance on the palate and fine tannins.
In 2002, Dassault Wine Estates, acquired its closest neighbour, Château La Fleur. Methods of excellence are then adopted to allow this marvelous terroir to express itself and to rise among the best Grands Crus of Saint-Emilion. Second de La Fleur is Château La Fleur’s second wine.
