Tasting notes
The 1984 is soft, has some attractive, weedy Cabernet Sauvignon fruit, but tails off in the mouth. It is light and, I suppose, elegant. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 4/91.

A hard wine, but has enough fruit to be drinkable. Strong Cabernet character comes through in the mint and herbal flavors. Drink now to 1995.--Ducru-Beaucaillou vertical.-James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1992
