Chateau Duhart Milon 1990

WINE SPECTATOR: "Gorgeous, firm wine. Good dark ruby color. Lovely berry, cherry, currant aromas. Full-bodied, with firm, well-integrated tannins and a long finish. Needs time.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective. Best after 2005. 13,000 cases made."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "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"
