Description

"Shows plenty of mint, currant and mineral character on the nose. Full-bodied, with big and soft tannins. Plenty of mushroom, berry and fruity character. Opulent and beautiful. Drink now."

Winespectator 2008: 93 points

"Like several other 1988s, this wine's rather hard, unyielding, early style has given way to a classically structured Bordeaux with a very youthful color (younger than the 1989), deep, earthy, cassis fruit intermixed with wood, smoke, mineral, and a hint of roasted herbs. The wine has excellent depth, medium to full body, moderate tannin, and a very youthful, vigorous feel. It is approachable, but seems destined to outlive the more renowned and expensive 1989. Somewhat of a sleeper of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2018. Last tasted, 9/01."

Score: 89+

Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (4), December 2003

"Underrated wine. Deep colour. Deep intense meaty nose. Slightly austere. A developing minerally palate. Quite rich and elegant with classic tobacco notes. Intense cranberry finish. A classic Bordeaux in every sense."

Score: 91-93

Neal Martin, eRobertParker.com, July 2001

"Popped and poured. Beautiful aromatics....forest floor, mushrooms, dark fruit. Drank with 3 others over the course of an hour....nose just kept improving. One of the best wines I drank all year!"
