Verkostung
The colour is still dark yellow with gold undertones.
The nose is on exotic fruits such as mango and passion fruit.
The mouth is a still oxidised and gives the impression of licking hay.
This vintage is starting to get out of its oxidative phase and should be kept.

Bewertungen
The 1990 blanc exhibits a great deal of strength and muscle in a full-bodied, well-balanced, ripe, heady, nicely textured style. The wine is less concentrated than the 1989, but it is still an impressive mouthful of wine. As I have stated in the past, if you are going to buy this wine, drink it within 2-3 years of the vintage, or be prepared to cellar it for 10 years. It tends to be best several years after bottling, at which time it closes up, not to emerge for 7-8 years. Last tasted 11/94."
