Tasting Notes

The 1999 Pensees de Lafleur is an excellent, dark ruby/purple-colored effort with sweet kirsch/raspberry fruit, and notions of the minerals and truffles that are so abundant in its bigger sibling. This wine should drink well for 10-12 years.

Lovely perfumed aromas of cherries, flowers and hints of oak. Medium bodied with fine tannins and a lovely, sweet fruit aftertaste. Best after 2002. 415 cases made.
