The 1990 is darkly colored, with a big, sweet, opulent, nearly explosive nose. This full-bodied wine displays excellent intensity and extract, plenty of ripe tannins, and a long, rich, authoritative finish.
Slightly rustic wine, but well-concentrated. Dark ruby color. Plenty of berry, cherry and tar aromas that follow through to a full-bodied palate with firm tannins and a ripe fruit finish.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
