As it is my birth year, I enjoyed two or three encounters with the 1971 Lafleur before. To be honest, it is not as good as one might expect given that Pomerol excelled in this vintage. It has a leathery nose with dried flowers and sometimes an unwanted geranium note. The palate is fresh and balanced, uncomplicated and winsome, underpinned by expressive Cabernet Franc towards the finish. - Neal Martin, Vinous Media
