The 1990 Cabernet Sauvignon offers an even more spectacular nose than the 1991 (rated 93), largely because it has enjoyed an additional year of evolution. Smoky, cassis, herb, sweet, leathery, meaty aromas are as profound as in the 1991. The wine is even more unctuous and flattering. This full-bodied, gorgeously put together wine should be approachable young but last for up to 15-20 years.
