"he 2014 La Fleur Morange was a difficult Saint Emilion to pin down when I tasted it from barrel back in April 2015. Now in bottle, it has a slightly reduced bouquet of black plum, cranberry and undergrowth scents, although it does not really convey a sense of joie-de-vivre. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin, good weight in the mouth, although the finish feels a little forced, as if trying to impress as much as their great 2012 did. Ease off the accelerator pedal and dial down that new oak!"

"In total contrast is the 2012 La Fleur Morange. This sensational effort exhibits an inky/blue/purple color as well as a sumptuous bouquet of blueberry jam, creme de cassis, incense and camphor as well as a touch of background oak (the wine is aged in 100% new French barrels). Full-bodied and long with ripe tannin, this impressive 2012 should drink well for 15+ years. Another exclusivity of Jeffrey M. Davies Signature Selections, this excellent estate produces an early-bottled cuvee from 100% Merlot called Mathilde. From a 5-acre parcel of 80-year-old vines cropped at 25 hectoliters per hectare, it is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc that reached 14.5% natural alcohol."
