Thursday, June 25, 2009 - Excellent concentration, structure and flavor intensity accurately describe this 1989 Troplong. Robert Parker isn't kidding when he described some of the top 89s as backward and stubborn. Even now, this wine is a tad to young to drink. It's complexities have yet to come through. Cherry by far dominates the flavor profile. Its backbone allows for a variety of food pairings, complimenting dinner very nicely. It started to open up after nearly 2 hours; try decanting or waiting even longer.
