Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 94
The spectacular Richebourg has a stunning nose, is more full bodied and powerful than usual, very long, but also quite tannic. I tasted it twice and my estimate on peak drinkability was between 1996 and 2012. It should be a real ager. This is among the few superstars of this vintage, but the 1986 is not for drinking soon-patience is most definitely required.
Allen Meadows, Burghound 87
A fully mature nose that is displaying notes of sous bois, spice, underbrush, smoke and lovely overall complexity leads to delicious and complex flavors that are easy to like though the finish comes up a bit short and dry. To be sure, with food this is more interesting as it rounds off the finish but there is no reason not to drink up as this will only further dry out with time in bottle.
