Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
The 1990 continues to develop exceptionally well (better than I thought), and now looks to be a worthy rival of the dazzling 1988. The superb aromatics (pineapple, acacia, vanilla, and honey) are followed by a rich, full-bodied, atypically powerful Climens that possesses adequate acidity, high alcohol, and even higher levels of extract and fruit. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2030. Last tasted 11/94 Score: 95 Robert Parker, 'Bordeaux' 3rd Ed. Maturity: 2000-2030 01 January 1998 |
