| COMMENTS: |
It reminded my of the glorious 1978. I am curious how the 1978 compare to the 1990 when they are at about the same age.
Definitley the 1990 is a great wine with pretty much everything you look for, complexity, balance and charm. It is still a bit young to assess the wine and I am not very good at it. I would love to be able to taste it again when it gains more mature complexity.
