Pensees de Lafleur 1990 originates from the notable Château Lafleur, known for its meticulous vineyard practices and low yields. This rare second label from the esteemed 1990 vintage offers an exploration of mature characteristics. Expect aromas of sous bois and tobacco, complemented by cedar and subtle spice. This wine exemplifies the nuanced complexity achievable in quality Bordeaux, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship that defines the estate.
89 Robert Parker
With plenty of tannin and a sense of over-ripe, jammy, cherry, kirsch-flavored fruit, the 1990 displays considerable power and a fleshy richness. It exhibits surprising individuality, including an exotic, even flamboyant personality. Anticipated maturity. Now-2002. Last tasted 1/93 - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Pomerol's Other Superstar

Château Lafleur has come to be recognised as one of greatest producers in Pomerol, offering wines of incredible balance, purity and elegance, with distinct mineral character. A stand out name for Bordeaux's Right Bank, the estate also produces a second red, Les Pensées de Lafleur, produced from a 0.68ha plot with its own distinct terroir - resulting in a lighter, more fragrant style compared to the Lafleur.

Despite both wines being classic blends of Cabernet Franc and Merlot with 20% new oak, the result is two quite different expressions: for example the the dominance of cigar-box and graphite Cabernet Franc complexity in the Lafleur.
