"1990 Canon-La-Gaffeliere
A beautiful wine, with intense fruit in the mid-palate, and lots of sweet fruit. No, it's not Petrus or La Conseillante. But there is plenty of velvet to the texture, plenty of ripeness to the fruit, and a very pleasing and long finish. 90 points."

"This wine has always tasted superb. Still a dark purple/garnet color, it offers an exotic bouquet of roasted coffee, caramelized herbs, sweet cassis, blackberries, chocolate, and licorice. The explosive bouquet is followed by a low acid, full-bodied, chewy wine with sweet tannin and ripe, jammy fruit and glycerin. It hit its peak of maturity 4-5 years ago, but is holding nicely. Consume it over the next 5-6 years.Release price: ($375.00/case)"
