Score 83/100 · Drink 1989-2012, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

From both cask and bottle, the 1986 has never seemed to be anything more than a lightweight, shallowly constructed, one-dimensional wine, with a lot of wood and tannin in the finish. Some fruit and charm has developed, but this is not one of the leaders in 1986. Anticipated maturity: now-2012 Last tasted, 3/89.
