J and M 20years wedding

90ies and 91s

• 1991 Château Montrose 90 Points

  France, Bordeaux, Médoc, St. Estèphe

  Probably the best 1991 Bordeaux I've ever had. Rather discrete wine, but good balance, with pencil shavings, a bit of cedar, and not the greenishness that I expected.

• 1990 Château Gruaud Larose 93 Points

  France, Bordeaux, Médoc, St. Julien

  Think this drank very well yesterday, after the Montrose 1991 it felt more full-bodied and sweeter with great concentration / power. Decanted about 2 hours ahead.

  Wonderful wine - that's how good Shiraz can get in perfection. Sweet, balanced, long; slight peppery nose; Shiraz notes but in an elegant fashion. Still youthful.

  Showed quite nicely. Medium-bodied and classic Bordeaux feel. Would drink this now.

  Deep golden color. Sweet but not overly so, some acid overtones which I liked. Pleasant.
