Château La Fleur-Pétrus--Vintage 1989
Pomerol
"In 1989, 50 of the grapes were cut off to reduce the crop size and to augment the wine's intensity. The results may be the finest La Fleur-Petrus since the 1950 and 1947. Dark opaque ruby, with a tight yet expressive bouquet of exotic spices, mocha, and deep, super-ripe black-cherry fruit, this medium-bodied wine has an inner core of depth and length. Its admirable intensity of flavor is backed by a formidable degree of alcohol and tannin. Anticipated maturity: 1996- 2009." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #85 (Feb 1993)
