Score 93/100 · Drink 2000-2030, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Aug 2022

An attractive, exotic wine, the 1990 Haut-Marbuzet bursts with aromas of sweet berries, espresso roast, cigar smoke, Indian spices, black truffles and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with a velvety attack that segues into a layered core of sweet fruit framed by melting tannins, it concludes with a long, sapid finish. It's a brilliant effort for this Saint-Estèphe overachiever.

Now past its prime, the 1990 Haut Marbuzet reveals some earthy, herbaceous, sweet cherry and currant fruit, a touch of oak, and a spicy character. It is fading quickly. Release price: ($210.00/case) Jun 2009, www.robertparker.com
