Description
A big, very ripe, overdone wine–but a delicious one. Seriously good dark-ruby color. Lots of raspberry and prune character on the nose. Full-bodied, with flavors verging on dried raisin, and toast and jam character on the aftertaste.–1989 Bordeaux horizontal. Best after 2000. (JS) Dark ruby, with an intense bouquet of overripe cassis, this chewy, well-endowed, full-bodied wine is reminiscent of the excellent 1970. Opulent as well as tannic, it may justify an outstanding rating in a decade. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, Rated 88 $NA Country: France Region: Bordeaux Issue: May 31, 1999
