Description
The vineyard of Château Lafleur is planted on three quite different soils: to the north-west we find sandy-clay gravel, to the south and to the east clay gravel, and at the heart of the vineyard gravelly sand. This unique association of soils helps in explaining in part the singularity of Lafleur. At the same time, we must mention the special combination of grape varieties, almost equal parts of Merlots and Bouchets, which highly contributes to the complexity of the wines made at Château Lafleur.
