Description

The color is a dense purple, and the wine is austere yet classic. The aromatics consist of cherry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with kirsch, minerals, and truffles. The wine is full-bodied, and superbly concentrated. This Lafleur will probably age for 50-60 years. Robert Parker 92 points

4/27/2014 - PURPLE TOOTH WROTE: 98 points
Drank this wine right before the 1989 and 1990 Petrus. Went back for a re-visit to this wine alongside the Petrus.

While the Petrus is in a DIFFERENT league of elegance, this wine is just as enjoyable. A gentleman's wine, with unforgettable deep tobacco character and intertwining black fruit and exotic spice. The fish is big, long and outstanding, but what blows me away about this wine is its up-front no-nonsense statement of power and complexity.

Still holding up very, very well, with room to improve over next few years and longer.

A massive wine with many years of life left in it. Powerful, elegant and delicious. Mr Posle - 93 points
