The 1988's fruit has faded, and the tannins have become hard, lean, and aggressive.

Subtle aromas, with chocolate and berry character. Medium-bodied, with soft tannins and a berry, chocolate and light citrus fruit edge. Friendly and enjoyable now. Better than I remember.¿'88/'98 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008). Drink now. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2009
