It's beautiful!!! Ripe mid and slightly darker red fruits with rose petals. Look up ripe & elegant in the dictionary, there is a picture of this wine. Cooked strawberries, dry cranberries, cooked rhubarb, touch of green pepper, high acidity, perfect evolution. Drink this for days. My wine of the night.

1989 vintage. Decanted and tasted over the course of two hours. Expected sed. Nice fill and one of the better corks I've seen in the last few years on a 1989 BDX. This is, by far, the oldest CLG I’ve had. The first few years are always filled with tons of fruit, richness, a rounded mouthfeel and very supple. This was tasting more like an 80’s vintage of Pichon-Lalande with the feminine characteristics except for a little beefiness around the 1.25 hours, post-decant, mark. Consistently delicious throughout the 2 hour experience. Not improving and semi-delicate but seems like it’s got 3-5 years left in this room before strolling into another. 12.15.23.
