"Opened from personal storage. An expressive, complex and highly perfumed nose now displays plenty of secondary development and is followed by big, powerful, classically robust and and still moderately structured flavors that offer superb depth and exceptionally good length. The '91 Bonnes Mares is a first-rate effort that will probably always possess a slight tannic edge to the finish yet the power and depth make it easy to overlook this. For my taste this is drinking wonderfully well now though there is absolutely no rush to drink up. Multiple, and largely consistent, notes."
