Note di degustazione
Good medium red. Highly complex, inviting aromas of black raspberry, mocha, licorice, black pepper, burning cinders and herbs. A lovely midweight wine whose considerable power is nicely countered by subtle sweetness and the herb and pepper nuances from the stems. The long finish features slightly peppery tongue-dusting tannins and a pungent note of licorice. But I prefer the '93 for its suavity and greater persistence. (13.2% alcohol; 3.51 pH; 3.5 g/l acidity; made from perfectly healthy grapes, according to Brouin, who vinified this wine with a sizable portion of whole clusters, as he did for the first time in 1985)

The 1990 Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru is drinking well, offering up an expressive bouquet of smoky plums, sweet forest floor and summer truffles that avoid the extremes of torrefaction that some wines from this vintage display. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, supple and satiny, with fresh acids, moderate concentration and depth and stony structuring tannins that still gently assert themselves on the finish. Fully mature, there's no reason to defer pulling corks.
