WOTN; astonishing at close to 40, could have lasted for several more years. Expected dark cherry and menthol resonant notes, absolutely effortless finish.

5/4/2024 - Keith Levenberg Likes this wine: 96 points

This is better than it's ever been. If you've ever doubted the old chestnut of a wine "putting on weight" with age this will disabuse you of any skepticism. The fruit here is as black and dense as road tar, still youthful, succulent, and sweet - except when this was *actually* in its youth it was nowhere nearly so rich and dense. But the accompanying flavors are the stuff that only comes out with bottle age, loads of smoldering tobacco and a scorched, singed character that's almost Pessac-like. This is still climbing up its slope, possibly with even more room for improvement, but at the very least a long ways to go before it tastes like something you'd call mature. Perhaps a successor to the underrated 1985?

My first time with this vintage and based on everyone else’s reviews, this was a tired bottle. Just toned down in every category. This still was acceptable and was enjoyed with white fish, lobster and sweet potato. Revisit 2025

97-99 Punkte. 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc. Was für ein Tiefgang in diesem Wein, man möchte Eintauchen, ein Cabernet-Duft wie aus dem Bilderbuch; zieht am Gaumen durch, baut viel Druck auf, bleibt hochelegant, Rasse, Klasse, Länge. Umwerfend. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024)

Superb, pretty much perfection. Deep rich blackcurrant fruit. The fruit is matched by lots of delicious cedar and saddle leather, with a touch of tar behind. The structure is still good, providing lift and tension. Overall this wine is open and inviting, multi layered and very long - just a joy to drink. Drinking now this will last anotehr decade.

As good a bottle as I’ve had of this wine and it was showing everything you’d ever want in a great Pauillac with age. Black fruits, graphite minerals and a gorgeous silky texture which leads to a refined, complex finish with notes of grilled nuts and smoked earth. One cannot under-estimate the greatness of Pauillac and this is a classic example in every way.
96-7

Decanted for an hour and classic 1988 Bordeaux with excellent nose and somewhat still sharp tannins. Fruit still there and still good for several years.

From a small bottle. Decanted 2 hours. The first glass (after 2 hours in the decanter) was great, surprisingly accessible. After another hour, the fruit faded slightly into the background and it became more tannic. Another hour later it turned again. Certainly the best is yet to come, but even at this stage it is a really great wine. 95 pts. at the moment

I love the nose on older Bordeaux. So much going on on this one. There is some brett and funk, but I don't find it objectionable.

The color on this is surprisingly dark, and youthful. Some bricking but not what I would expect.

Soft and enjoyable, but fading. I am surprised that 68% of the bottles are still in cellars and have not been consumed.

Mid garnet in the glass. Nose is somewhat muted with iron pan, and perfumed blackberry.

Palate displays great balance and complexity. A very nice wine and it may get a point of two better with more age......

A full flavored wonderful wine. Right after opening, on the first sip, the acid was showing more than it should. But within half an hour or so it had already mellowed and the wine was wonderfully balanced with nice fruits. Before opening the fill seemed a bit low, but it turned out that it was nothing to worry about because the wine was wonderful

4/14/2024 - ONEFIVE Likes this wine: NR

Youthful appearance and alive on the nose.
Dried red and black fruit, tobacco, damp soil, and density.
In the mouth it is med- body, med acid, med tannin.
Well balanced with vibrancy and structure. Only knock is that it is slightly thin (less ripeness = more acid).
It’s holding up well due to the freshness and tannin. Fruit is hanging on well.
This will age for at least another 10-15 years.

Decanted for 3h from a half bottle, smooth and silky. Sandalwood and tobacco on the nose, the palate is red fruit, more smoky tobacco and oak, roasted coffee, spicy tannins, and a long clean finish. Deliciously complex and paired tonight with pan seared filet and baked potato with plenty of butter. Then chocolate cake for dessert (the bdx was an awesome pairing!). Very mild resolved tannins at this point, I'd say it is ready to enjoy.
