The 2000 Pensées de Lafleur, an equal blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, has a very attractive bouquet with blackberry, incense and iris, moving towards secondary aromas such as dried blood and a touch of orange rind. This feels very fresh in the mouth, cohesive with a savory undercurrent. This is quite foursquare for Pensées, not quite as exuberant and intense as the 2005 with a grainy, peppery finish. Tasted at the Christies’ Lafleur masterclass in London.
