Score 86/100 · Drink 1993-2000, Robert Parker, Feb 1993

The 1989 exhibits a smooth, lush texture, abundant ripeness, and a short finish. Because of the high alcohol and low acidity, this wine must be drunk young. Anticipated maturity: Now-2000.

Offers lovely earth, tobacco and ripe fruit character. Full-bodied, with firm tannins and a superrich, chewy finish. Very impressive for this estate.--1989 Bordeaux horizontal. Drink now. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1999
