Confident stuff to finish the tasting with a pair of 2013s; not just the main wine but Pensées also. This is clearly still young in terms of structure and primary fruit character, but it’s already beginning to soften, as is the character of the vintage. But that's where the easy shortcuts to the watery challenges of 2013 end, because this is packed full of flavour, with blueberry and redcurrant notes, sweet liquorice and cigar box and floral overtones. An impressive wine that underlines how underappreciated vintages can offer sweet spots if you know where to look.
