Score 87/100 · Drink 2018-2025, Neal Martin, Sep 2018
The 1989 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru frankly pales against the majestic 1990. It feels a little under-nourished on the nose, a vein of greenness that cannot be ignored. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly coarse tannin, improving midway towards the rigid, menthol-tinged finish, but you cannot help feeling that it falls away a little short. I was not impressed when I first tasted this in 2010 and those sentiments remain. Tasted at the Roumier vertical in London.
