Score 92/100 · Robert Parker
The bouquet of the black/ruby/purple-colored 1988 remains tight, but with swirling, one can detect scents of smoky, toasty oak, black plums, allspice, and Asian spices. There are gobs of super-ripe fruit in this extremely concentrated wine. Very structured, with considerable tannin, this massive, full-bodied 1988 will provide a dazzling glass of decadent Pomerol. Anticipated maturity: 1994-2010. Last tasted, 12/92. Aug 1993, www.robertparker.com
