Description

From Parker:

Wine Advocate # 109
Feb 1997 Robert Parker 89 Drink: 2001 - 2020
Ducru's 1989 was one of the more tannic, backward wines in the blind tasting. It is cleanly made, and well-crafted, with plenty of black-raspberry and cassis fruit nicely touched by minerals and a fragrant, floral component. Medium-bodied, elegant, and well-endowed, this is a potentially outstanding wine if all the tannin melts away over the next 5-6 years. One of the least flattering 1989s to drink at present, it requires 4-5 more years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020.

Wine Advocate # 88
Aug 1993 Robert Parker 90 Drink: 2000 - 2020
The 1989 tastes like a hypothetical blend of their 1986 and 1982. It is less powerful and concentrated than the 1982, but not nearly as backward nor as tannic as the 1986. Dark ruby, with a more perfumed, toasty character than usual, this medium-bodied, currant-flavored wine exhibits plenty of depth, low acidity, good tannins, and an understated yet authoritative style that makes it a benchmark for its type. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2020. Last tasted, 5/93.

Wine Advocate # 85
Feb 1993 Robert Parker 90 Drink: 1998 - 2020
In 1989 Ducru-Beaucaillou made an exceptional wine. It tastes like a hypothetical blend of their 1986 and 1982. Less powerful and concentrated than the 1982, but not nearly as backward nor as tannic as the 1986, the 1989 is one of the Medoc's most elegantly rendered wines. Dark ruby, with a more perfumed, toasty character than usual, this medium-bodied, earthy, currant and mineral-flavored wine exhibits plenty of depth, surprising acidity for the vintage, firm tannins, and an understated yet authoritative style that makes it a benchmark for its type. Anticipated maturity: 1998- 2020.
