Tasting Notes and Scores
The 1990 has turned out better than I expected. It offers a classic Lafite perfume of graphite/lead pencil shavings interwoven with red and black currants, fresh porcini mushrooms, smoke, and tobacco leaf. Medium to full-bodied, soft, and elegant, it is not as concentrated as the 1982, but is a luscious, round Pauillac to enjoy over the next 5-10 years. Release price: ($275.00/case)

Cherry-berry and menthol nose has a briary quality and seems somewhat pinched. Reasonably well delineated on the palate, but ungenerous and not showing the fat or ripeness of the vintage. Lacks distinction. Seems somewhat sour and green on the finish.
