Description

Robert Parker writes of this wine..... "The 1988's deep ruby/purple colour exhibits more opaqueness and depth than the 1989. The spicy, mineral and cassis-scented bouquet has more focus and dimension. In the mouth, there is an elevated level of tannins, in keeping with the style of the 1988 vintage, but unlike many 1988s, this wine possesses excellent, even outstanding concentration, plenty of length, and a sense that the yields were kept conservative, as there is an inner strength and depth that suggests this wine will ultimately outperform and outlive the 1989". Wine Advocate #88, 1993

Parker Rating 89/100 (Excellent)

This wine is now at the peak of its maturity and will remain so until 2014
