Château Palmer 1990 8-7

Château Palmer 1990 8-7Robert Parker This was the finest bottle of the 1990 Palmer I have yet tasted, and it appears I slightly underrated it in earlier reviews. A complex bouquet of earth, blue and black fruits, licorice, incense, and spice box is followed by a round, silky, voluptuous wine that falls just short of achieving the depth and richness found in such recent vintages as 2000, 2005, 2006, and 2008. A very strong, fully mature effort, its balance, purity, depth,

blyant og kanel

hvilket var med til at give vinen både dybde og struktur

A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon

Les Suchots er kendt for et fremragende lagringspotentiale

er denne vin et bevis på Rousseau's evne til at få det bedste ud af årgangens karakter og terroiret i Clos de Bèze

der er perfekt til at nyde alene eller sammen med et måltid

30% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc

som fortsætter i en harmonisk eftersmag

Farlig let drikkelig Pinot Noir fra to marker - den ene mark ligger i Pataluma Gap i hjertet af den blæsende korridor og den anden fra Fort Ross Seaview

Both of them are pure perfection for my palate

with full-bodied aromas and flavors of blackcurrants

this needs about three hours of decanting at this stage
