January 30, 2024 - La Vie du Vin featuring Chateau Lafleur, Omri Ram, Martine's Wines, and Chef Tim Hollingsworth (Blackberry Farm, TN): Do not underestimate this great vintage of Lafleur. They used candles to overcome the terrible frost that ruined many other crops. My third favorite out of six vintages of Lafleur over two days, behind only the 2020 and 2005.

September 30, 2023 - My colleagues and I were finally able to organize a mini Lafleur vertical last night (an old dream that was very, very difficult to bring together) to redefine the odds against the fabulous 2022 vintage. Once again, we can't put 100 points everywhere.
1) 2019 - 2022 (sample) 100/100
3) 2020 99-100/100
4) 2018 99/100
5) 2016 - 2021 (sample) 98-99/100
7) 2015 98/100
8) 2012 -2017 97/100
10) 2014 96-97/100
11) 2013 94/100 -

October 17, 2022 - One of the wines of the vintage, initially you find smoke, truffle, salt, cherries, kirsch, and underbrush on the nose. On the palate, you find freshness, vibrancy, chewy tannins and sweet, salty red fruits that linger. Drink from 2030-2060.
