Critics
91 Points
Wine Spectator, November 1990
Big, youthful and consequently awkward, but with a beam of tart currant and plum flavors blazing through the tough tannins and hard-edged oak character. Desperately needs cellaring until at least 1998.
88 Points
Robert Parker, Parker's Wine Buyer's Guide, 1993
The 1987 displays a mineral, blackcurrant, smoky character, good acidity, a medium- to full-bodied feel, and enough depth and richness to last for 10-15 years.
