98 AG "I was completely unprepared for the sheer beauty of the 1990. What a fabulous wine! A burst of gloriously ripe, red fruit exploded from the glass, followed by a never ending array of spices and flowers that melded together seamlessly in an extraordinary display of sheer class. This was a fabulous bottle in every way." 93 AM This is a big, robust and powerful wine with good depth, richness and ample structure that will likely require another 3 to 5 years to fully come into full maturity (even though it could certainly be drunk now with enjoyment).
