  Murstein på farge med noe rubin og lysere vanndig kant.
  Ekspressiv på duft med mørkere frukt som moreller og blå-plummer samt lær, integrert eik, god syre, og lang deilig ettersmak. Dette er en vin som bærer alderen perfekt som ungdommelig og jucy med flott modning. Vinen er i nydelig balanse, har fin syrestruktur og delikate tørre tanniner. Perfekt å drikke nå.

  Restrained fruit on the open, with notes of blackberry and dark cherry, before transitioning to notes of cedar, mushrooms, anise, and leather. More structured and tannic than the '88 Gloria consumed a couple of weeks before. Nice lingering finish on the tertiary notes and good balance to this wine. Having consumed a few '88's recently, there are similar notes in the tertiary flavors to all of these old wines. They have sort of a beautiful brambly back end that reminds me of freshly cut logs in the forest. Whatever it is, I'm a fan.

  Deep ruby. Strong grassy and minty hues on nose. Soft tannins, with mouthwatering acids, and savoury meaty tones, with aour cherry, dried grass and pepper. Pretty lengthy and complex at the back

  Servert blindt: Svart med rubinorange kant. Utrolig kompleks nese med tobakk, kjølige solbær og blåbær på nese. Litt fersk fiken, tobakk, lær. Viser mye utvikling, men likevel rester av ungdommelig frukt. Roger gjettet 1988 vestside etter å kun ha luktet på vinen. Dæsken for en ungdommelig frukt. Perfekt klassisk årgang Bordeaux. 93

  Klar, dunkles rubingranat, leichtes Orange in der schmalen Randaufhellung, mittlere Viskosität
  Sauber, intensives Aroma nach dunklen Früchten, Gewürze, Zedernholz, viele nichtig, gut gereift
  Trocken, frische Säure, perfekt eingebundene reife Tannine, mittelgewichtig, intensiver Geschmack nach Pflaume, Sauerkirsche, Gewuerznoten, langer Abgang
  Jetzt Perfekt zu trinken, sollte sich noch einige Jahre auf dem Level halten
