Note di degustazione
A more challenging vintage than the 1986, with a lack of sunshine, and this is soft in colour, rose pink and tawny. Aromatics of tobacco, soy and earth, definitely reaching the end of its plateau, although charming and still with structure, aniseed spices and smoked cedar, builds slowly over the palate, and there is pleasure to be had, but needs to be drunk within the next decade. 65hl/h yeld, first year with AXA Millésimes as owners, and Jean-Michel Cazes as director.

The 1987 Pichon-Longueville-Baron is an excellent wine for the vintage. Rich, long, supple, and fat, this tasty, generously endowed Pauillac should drink well for another 5-7 years. Anticipated maturity: Now-1996. Last tasted, 4/92.
Elegant and well balanced, with ripe currant, bell pepper, spice and vanilla notes. Complex and well proportioned, with a touch of tobacco, this has more flavor than most from this vintage. It needs time for tannins to mellow. Drink now to 1996.James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1990
