88 Points

Sunday, October 29, 2017 - From a bottle generously provided by K.J., this medium garnet wine still has a core of black and red fruit, now flanked with tobacco, damp earth, dried herbs, black olives and a hint of truffles. Medium-bodied and tartly acidic, it has residual tannins which still carry some grip. The middle palate remains solid and the finish fairly long, although the latter is somewhat acerbic. While this '88 still has life, there are better left bank offerings from this structured vintage. Drink now-2022.
