The terroir is composed of sandy gravel on clay subsoil. The 2016 harvest took place in two phases.

Wine Advocate-Parker : The 2016 La Fleur Peyrabon has a perfumed, floral bouquet not a million miles away from Margaux. I appreciate the definition and freshness here. The palate is medium-bodied, not a powerful Pauillac but very elegant. The tannins here seem very fine and there is wonderful tension towards the finish. Maybe not a long-term propositionùit may need more bodyùbut it is a beautiful wine that should give a lot of pleasure over the next 10-15 years.
