It is one of my favourite right banks and 1990 is definitely a vintage that shines.
Beautiful light garnet colour, it is very floral on the nose, earthy with herbs, blueberries, peppers, cedarwood, flint stones and black truffle.
Bottle aeration for about an hour.
Silky tannins balanced with some liquorice, plum, berries and a bit tar. Complex and got very good length.
Honestly a wine that I’ll drink all night.
