93+ Points - Vinous
The 2020 Les Pensees (they have dropped the “de Lafleur”) is a blend of 29% Merlot and 71% Cabernet Franc picked September 11–19. This is backward at first and needs some coaxing from the glass, almost reluctantly offering blackberry, crushed stone, violet and incense. The palate is silky-smooth on the entry, deep and pixelated, armed with a killer line of acidity and a very cool and sophisticated, beguiling finish. Stunning.
93+ Points - James Suckling
A lovely round and juicy wine, with blackberry and milk chocolate and velvety tannins. Full and very attractive. Texture is everything here. The second wine of Lafleur. 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc.
93 Points - Decanter
This has the physicality of tannins right up front, a clear signature of the vintage, but nothing is heavy or bitter, rather they exert a pressure that gives form and shape to the ripe berry fruits, balanced by mocha, fennel and smoked cocoa bean. Not as joyous as in some vintages of Pensées, but extremely hard to argue with its quality, and the deft, bright finish.
