Score 96/100 · Drink 2001-2020, Robert Parker, Jan 1997
Opaque purple, bordering on black in color, La Landonne's aromatics are the most subdued of the 1987s. Although still closed, this wine is very powerful, rich, thick, and represents the essence of the Syrah grape. That earthy, mineral, truffle, licorice component is just beginning to poke its head through this massively framed wine. It is remarkable that this vintage produced a wine of such extraordinary concentration and richness. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020. Last tasted 8/96.

Relatively light nose. Lovely dense smooth texture on the palate. Quite advanced for Landonne. Silky texture. Very suave. Long and treacly. Complete. (JR)
