 | Qty=12Size=750 ml'The 1990 appears to be fuller-bodied and more structured than the 1989, but not as concentrated as his 1988. A big wine, it is rich in color, with a spicy, stemmy earthiness, and gobs of black fruit on the palate. While it is full-bodied, raw, and tough, the potential is there. I do not think it will ever match the 1988 in quality, but it may surpass the 1989. Lemencier produces 8,000 bottles, all of which are unfined and unfiltered, so expect a heavy sediment to form with several years of aging. Last tasted 3/95." - Robert Parker, robertparker.com (Dec 31, 1996) |
