Appearance: dark purple-red with developing orange rim. Nose: restrained dark fruit aromas (blackberry, black cherry, blueberry) that have a closed character right now but which are combined with subtle oak, leather and dark chocolate aromas. Palate: definitely fruitier on the palate, the nose currently masking what is super-concentrated yet elegant fruit, with a very drying large tannic structure and lovely acidity. Alcohol is perfectly balanced too. Conclusion: this superb wine needs time. From a slightly cooler vintage than 1990 it is a bit closed right now, but is opulent and subtle on the palate with incredible length. Not as open as the 1983 vintage, but will be superb over the next...
