Great stuff. Toasty and rich. Brioche and almonds with a dense golden color. The zip and vigor of late disgorgement gives this a freshness but with great complexity and lots of secondary stuff. Wonderful

The 1988 Collection offers stunning interplay of vintage 1988 vibrancy with the complexity that has developed in bottle. Apricot, pastry, brioche, dried flowers, chamomile and lightly honeyed notes all infuse the 1988 with notable complexity and nuance. At 31 years of age, the 1988 Collection remains taut, classically austere and full of energy. It will drink well for another 20 years or more. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, December 2019)

Golden in color, with notes of honey/caramel, apricot and just the right amount of oxidation.
