Scoring 91/100 Parker points and from the very good 1986 vintage "The 1986 is a remarkable wine which is amazing given the fact that this vineyard was inundated during the severe rainstorms prior to the harvest. No doubt a very strict selection resulted in only the later-picked grapes going into the 1986. It has a stylish black currant-and-mineral-scented bouquet backed up nicely by spicy new oak. The wine is deep ruby/purple in color medium bodied with excellent ripeness and richness. It is not a blockbuster but it does have a beautifully crafted graceful texture and a long stylish finish. It is undoubtedly the finest wine produced at this beautiful estate in Pessac between '61 and '88." Drink now - 2015. A wonderful 25th anniversary gift. This vintage wine is shipped in a deluxe silk lined wooden presentation box with four wine accessories (corkscrew wine pourer drip stopper & wine stopper) [worth £14.99] at no extra cost.
