A little oaky on the open

turning to medium minus tannin and medium plus acid

This particular example

Located in Pessac-Leognan

A rather restrained nose with plenty of primary aromas: cassis

A traditional and consistently well made claret

Aromas of marmalade

Very rare to find an example of this age

1989 vintage is the middle child in a run of three great vintages

The wines have considerable ageing potential and are exceptionally long-lived
