Reseña profesional
The 1990 Pichon-Lalande is a very fine example of the vintage. The deep, complex and vibrant nose delivers a classy mélange of sweet dark berries, cassis, coffee, tobacco leaf, gravelly soil tones, cigar smoke and a finely-integrated base of new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very long, with admirable complexity, refined focus and balance, melting tannins and impressive grip on the very long and refined finish. This is a classic example of Pichon-Lalande from its glory days of the decade of the 1980s, and the 1990 here has just gotten better and better with each passing year. It is one of the most elegant examples of the vintage to be found on the Left Bank. (Drink between 2016-2050)
