Tasting Notes
Wine Spectator 91
"A rich wine, with plum and earth aromas and flavors, a velvety mouthfeel and an excellent, ripe tannin structure. The '88 may be a tiny bit better. Try after 1997."
Robert Parker 89
Ducru's 1989 was one of the more tannic, backward wines in the blind tasting. It is cleanly made, and well-crafted, with plenty of black-raspberry and cassis fruit nicely touched by minerals and a fragrant, floral component. Medium-bodied, elegant, and well-endowed, this is a potentially outstanding wine if all the tannin melts away over the next 5-6 years. One of the least flattering 1989s to drink at present, it requires 4-5 more years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020.
