Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Toffee, earth and white chocolate on the nose, plus a strong suggestion of terroir. Concentrated and very rich, with a deep note of beurre blanc and a strong lemony flavor. The acidity carries the flavors through to a long, slightly sweet/sour finish. Like the '83, this wine is impressively endowed but comes across as somewhat disjointed. Score: 91 Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com 01 November 1998 |

Every time we taste this wine we love it even more. High volume and high intensity, they pulled out all the stops to get the most fruit and vanilla flavors, fine acidity and a long finish. A Cellar Selection in December 1991. At its peak. Drink now. Score: 95 Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator 31 December 1993 |
