Score 76/100 · Robert Parker, Jan 1997

Soft, fruity, straightforward, and totally mature, this wine is Chave's least favorite vintage of the eighties, and I must agree with him. Drink it up. Last tasted 11/90.

Very heavy. Thick and dense. Gorgeous and scented. Bit falling apart on the palate. Dangerous. (JR)
