I had forgotten about this wine in my cellar. It was outstanding, far more than I had expected. Lovely soft nose, soft tannins, subdued but clearly pleasant fruit, and finish that disappeared off the back of the palate. I have 2 more and can't wait to have them but hate to see them go.

Lovely wine. Perfectly at its peak now. Full bodied, good fruit, lead pencil. Typically Pauillac. Firm wine. Compared to Lacoste Borie 1990 this wine has a little more structure and can last for a few years more.

Much better than I expected. No bricking, and a nice ruby color with ample fruit and a smooth finish.

Slightly green yet still rich enough of fruit.

Beautiful glass of wine. Full bodied, lead pencil, a lot of finesse. Great!
