Friday, March 29, 2024 - Wow I m amazed at the craze here, people get really pumped when tasting that wine. Still I believe it really is 95/100 potential somewhere
I still believe the VCC 2014 and Figeac 2009, for their drinkability waer above Evry wine during our trip... still Le Pin and Lafleur had something absolute in their style
here is my take on a rainy, cold day at Lafleur on this 19
Nose is closed, needs lot of air, graphite, pencil shavings, pepper, spice and flowery melt here, complex and dense wine
palate is driven and sour... unique style, ripe and concentrated, long, large, black chocolate, like from a best cru from Africa or anywhere where the purity of Cocoa appears. It is a very meditative wine ! hope to taste one when ready !
