Château Léoville-Poyferré--Vintage 1990
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé. Château-bottled
Tasting note: Absolutely spectacular, the 1990 Léoville Poyferré is much more evolved than either of its two Léoville neighbors. Its opaque plum/garnet color is accompanied by a gorgeous bouquet of smoke, charcoal, creme de cassis, and flowers. Fleshy and opulent, it comes across like a St.Julien with a Pomerol texture and allure. This beauty has reached full maturity where it should remain for another two decades. 97 points.
