A very cloudy cinnabar in the glass, this wine smells of leather and camphor and crushed herbs. In the mouth, gorgeous redcurrant, cedar, tangy and herbal juiciness. Definitely some VA, but that's par for the course.

Hint of raisin. Delicate terroir. Tart cherries. Little dried vanilla. Great sage and herbs. Juicy red berries.

1990 still pretty and vibrant. Low on the brett.

Just as beautiful as the last time i tasted the 90. The la tache comparison was thrown around again.

等不到四十年了,三十年也挺好。仍然是正直壮年的酒,不像2009年的加贝兰就已经垂垂老矣

Superb and otherworldly, notes more like white port than white (or orange) wine, even with faint notes of cork taint

Soft, ripe, more red fruit than dark fruit, sour cherry, quite Italian in feel, lo wish tannins, loads of balanced acidity, of course the volatility but an accompanied floral character. I like it, 5 years ago, I may have liked it better but oddly there is not that much older mushroom Forrest floor character. A lovely wine.
