Jun 2009 Robert Parker 96 Drink: 2009 - 2035
As one might expect, this is a brilliant wine, but it remains shockingly young, even for the fast evolving 1990s. Its deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a classic, nearly restrained set of aromatics that includes notions of sweet black cherries, black currants, lead pencil, and wet stones. In the mouth, it is full-bodied, and while technically low in acidity, there is a freshness, delineation, and classicism in this full-throttle, rich, concentrated, impeccable 1990. While still youthful, it is easy to appreciate despite its substantial tannins. It is not quite as backward as the 1990 Lafite Rothschild or 1990 Latour.

Mar 2008 Neal Martin 97 Drink 2018 - 2050
A bottle served blind for dinner in Bordeaux during my week-long stay. This remains a monumental Leoville Las-Cases: a very intense, rather broody nose with ripe blackberry, cedar, leather and earth with quite breathtaking definition. The palate is full-bodied, very masculine, eschewing those hot summer fruits that mark some 1990 clarets. Very cohesive, sinewy, almost impenetrable on the finish although I suspect this might be because of the perfect provenance. Huge grip. This is a wine for those who do not mind persevering! Drink 2018-2050.
