About a third of the crop became Pensées after selling off 15% as Pomerol, “a bit more” than in 2005. 59% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Franc. If anything a slightly lighter colour than the Guinaudeaus’ AC Bordeaux Ch Grand Village! Bright crimson, Light, fresh nose – spring flowers almost. Then quite a bit of weight on the palate – almost bloody! Great well balanced mouthful, quite advanced but bright shining fruit. Long. (JR)
(a 59/41 blend of merlot and cabernet franc; the property's second wine, made from a hectare of young vines as well as "the more humid" soils, was introduced with the 1987 vintage) Bright red-ruby. Sexy aromas of inky cherry, minerals, violet and meat. Not especially dense but supple, meaty and sweet, with notes of blackberry and licorice.
