Robert Parker has consistently awarded this wine with 100 Points:-
"There have been so many great vintages under the Mentzelpoulous regime that it is almost inconceivable that the 1990 could outrank the 1982,1983,1985,1986,and 1995,but,in my opinion,it possesses an extra-special dimension.While it is approachable,it will last 20-30 years. Last tasted,November 1996".

Robert Parker. (Bordeaux.A Comprehensive Guide. Third Edition).
"I had this wine both in Seoul,Korea in February and from my cellar in December 2008,and it was remarkable how identical the wines smelled and tasted.It offers an extraordinary aromatic display of spring flowers,camphor,sweet black and red fruits,a hint of licorice,and no evidence of its 100% new oak cask aging.Round and generous with low acidity,but an opulent,full-bodied richness that is fresh with laser-like precision,this stunning wine is just beginning to reachn its the plateau of maturity,where it should remain for another three decades.A sensational effort,it is one of the legendary wines made at Margaux".
