Sweet, in the best sense. Powerful. Giving with controlled finesse.

Super clean magnum. Sooo delicious and lots of life ahead. Very big and open, black, red, blue fruit all in harmony. One of the better bottles of this I've had.

Mark Lindzy

Very pretty for its age, with more red fruit and softer tannins than the '90 St Emilion in the other decanter.

Knightsbridge Wine Shoppe

Sweet black cherry, blueberry, dark chocolate, leather, smoke. Powerful with an almost port-like quality, though without the heat.

Benjamin Keator

Hint of menthol ( not near La Tache levels), dry, cinnamon candy. This is an absolute iconic wine and a treat to experience, but was outdone by the 1990 Angelus. What a treat

John Svoboda

Deep inky purple color with a powerful, tannic bouquet of currant, smoked meat and tobacco. Huge surge in mouth, lots of glycerine that was powerful but not overpowering. Well balanced despite big tannins that will take years to melt away. A freight train that provided a long, powerful ride.

Jeffrey Lew

Oh man this is good stuff. Very opulent and round. Great fruit and viscosity.

Jeffrey Lew

Wow, just what I was looking for. Stewed prunes and zippy astringency... Looks like this didn't make it across the pond intact. Total shame. Very sad. High end mouth wash.

Nate: It has the hint of an elderly Raisinette

Anthony A Minne

Really nice. A perfect mix of dried red and black fruit and tertiary notes. Classic
