Château Pichon-Longueville, Baron--Vintage 1989
Pauillac, 2me cru classé
Slight signs of seepage, lightly stained label
In original wooden case
"Both the 1989 and 1990 vintages exhibit opaque, dense purple colors that suggest massive wines of considerable extraction and richness. The dense, full-bodied 1989 is brilliantly made with huge, smoky, chocolatey, cassis aromas intermingled with scents of toasty oak. Well-layered, with a sweet inner-core of fruit, this awesomely endowed, backward, tannic, prodigious 1989 needs another 5-6 years of cellaring; it should last for three decades or more. It is unquestionably a great Pichon-Longueville-Baron." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #109 (Feb 1997)
