Description

1989 Ch. Ducru Beaucaillou (92) The 1989 Ducru-Beaucaillou sashays out of the glass with pretty notes of dried flowers, fallen leaves and dusty soil over a core of warm figs.

1989 Ch. La Conseillante (97) This bottle confirms that exuberance and joie-de-vivre on the nose, displaying the telltale crushed violets in bloom.

1989 Ch. La Fleur Petrus (94) Well-worn leather, steeped tea and mulled red currant fruit aromas and flavors glide together here, with velvety tannins lining the finish.

1989 Ch. Lafite Rothschild (97) It's a wine with a character of cloves and berries with hints of plums and loads of potpourri.

1989 Ch. Latour (95) On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and plenty deep at the core, with firm, well-integrated tannins and excellent mineral drive.

1989 Ch. Leoville Las Cases (98) Spiced sandalwood, white pepper, saffron, cigar box, oyster shell salinity, orange peel, and still juicy blackcurrant with blueberry fruit.

1989 Ch. Lynch Bages (99) A striking wine that offers up pure and intense aromas of cassis, pencil shavings, spring flowers and hints of cigar wrapper.

1989 Ch. Margaux (97) Sour cherry, salted caramel, and a touch of balsamic strawberry with remarkable concentration.

1989 Ch. Mouton Rothschild (98) Freshly picked blackberries turn into minty dark chocolate and oozing caramel with domineering eucalyptus on the nose.

1989 Ch. Palmer (97) This wine offers striking aromas of black cherries, cassis, sweet pipe tobacco, roasted coffee, tar and spring florals, which are just about impossible to resist.

1989 Ch. Pichon Lalande (95) On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure, velvety and complex, with a beautiful core of fruit, fine soil signature and melted tannins.

1989 Ch. Trotanoy (93) The bouquet is deep and complex as it offers up a lovely blend of red plums, a touch of blood orange, tobacco smoke, incipient notes of Pomerol nuttiness, mocha, and a stylish base of vanillin oak.
