Description

"Another wine that seems to have some youthful characteristics, a high level of tannin and a lack of succulence and substance may ultimately prove to produce a wine somewhat out of balance. The wine shows plum, fig, cherry, earthy, mineral notes and medium body, but the elevated tannins in the finish are distracting. Nevertheless, the wine has a youthfulness and vigor that make it far less evolved than its more seductive older siblings, the 1983 and 1985. Last tasted, 12/02."

Bordeaux Book, 4th Edition Jan 2003

"Impressively deep crimsonwith a little evolution at the rim. Particularly true and characteristic of the property (and one of the most approachable of the grand 1986s). Mineral on the nose with gravelly hints of warm stones. Big, ripe though with quite stern tannins underneath. There's something distinctly blackcurrant syrup-like about it (even though there is almost no Cabernet Sauvignon in it). Perhaps very slightly short." Jancis Robinson 18/20 01/2003
