1989 Château Larose-Trintaudon 78 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Haut-Médoc
Little metallic, relatively short but still some classic bordeaux notes left. Drink up! But still drinkable

1989 Domaine de Beychevelle 82 Points
France, Bordeaux, Bordeaux Supérieur
Real nice surprise, theres some true joy left in that bottle, obviously way less concentrated than the higher ranked sibilings from the same vintage but still very good for what it is. Some oer ripe cherries and loads of licorice

1989 Château La Gurgue 90 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux
Cassis, like a chilenean cabernet, a little agressive but with a very powerful palate i really liked this, also when going back after the other wines

What a wine, truly spectacular and just a perfect 'graves'. Still some fruit left, herbs, leather, cedar wood, fantastic!

Ts was over the hill, despite being a very well stored bottle. Also there were quite a bit of unclean notes, not sure whats going on with this wine. Ut wouldnt bet on that horse...

1989 Château Cantemerle 93 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Haut-Médoc
I absolutely ahve to agee with 'le fouloir' - This is a wonderful mature Bordeaux. It was complex beyond its original price...
It's so creamy and round loads of fruit very sweet and with perfectly stored bottles i give this wine another 40 (!) years potential.

1989 Château de Fieuzal 88 Points
France, Bordeaux, Graves, Pessac-Léognan
Let me start by saying that im a huge fan of their whites and pretty indifferent to their reds (despite being owned by an irish guy)
Cinammon, nutmeg, leather, cigarnbox, tobacco, all classic bordeaux jotes, but compared to la louviere this is miles behind...
