  I bought 4 of these 20+ years ago and this was the best yet. Very mature Bordeaux, but was still showing ample cherry like flavors with a very smooth soft finish.

  Similar note to the bottle I drank last year. Vibrant red color with muted fruit and a soft floral finish.

  The wine was surprisingly drinkable. The cork was not soaked and there was only a minor amount of sediment. There were classic Bordeaux nuances with muted cherry fruit and a slight earthiness.

  There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like forest floor, toast and leather. The body is medium/full. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.
  The wine was too old and the tannins were not well balanced.

  Dyp rød, brunsvartoransje. Varm stil, plomme, tobakk, stall, jern, litt toast. Litt hul, tyder på varm årgang. Tipper varm 80 talls Østside. 1989 Pessac Leognan er fasit. Brukbar tanninstruktur. Modent. 90
