Almonds and brioche on the nose, with some ripe fruits like apple and pear, a zip of acidity in the mouth with stoniness but also creamy luxury, balance and class. A real treat.

Spectacular, powerful minerality, rich vinous character on palate

Delish. All about minerality, oyster shells, but with some stone fruit, some green apple, even honeysuckle. Fresh, bright, but medium bodied, not light. Lots of acidity. Drank alone but this would be fantastic with fish.

A real pleasure to drink a well-aged 1988, smooth tannins, most of the palate showed variations of "dried"... roses, berries, leather, tobacco

Just great; I didn’t have any earlier so don’t know if it has just arrived or been fine for a while

Jaminess is gone as you’d expect, leaving a very deep dark balanced wine. Tannins are integrated, a very smooth drinker. Seems like it will make 20 years without a problem.

Very good but I was expecting more given the age and price.

Rich and full bodied, very wine-like, the cork had not expanded much at its base and so not much carbonation.

Amazing, well balanced, not too unctuous or viscous at all

Silky feel and lengthy finish I agree with. Also good acidic structure and enough oak but not too much. I paid too much at $90 and doubt I would get it again at that price. More like a $50 to me.
