Score 89/100 · Drink 1995-2007, Robert Parker, Oct 1992
The 1990 displays a chocolate, smoky, cassis-scented nose, and peppery, rich, powerful, full-bodied flavors that are oozing extract, glycerin, and tannin. It is impressive for its size and potential longevity. The overbearing, coarse, sometimes volatile, dirty style that characterized so many older vintages from this domaine is, fortunately, a thing of the past. Importer: Wines of France - an Alain Junguenet Selection, Mountainside, NJ.
