wine 1990

Freshness, seduction and charming purity ... This cuvee is the prestigious one of Gosset. It is a tribute to the style and to the history of the house.

"The 1990 exhibits a deep golden corn-like color, followed by sensational aromatics" Robert Parker

"Multi-millionaire collectors will have fun comparing the 1989 and 1990 Petrus. The 1989 has a slightly more saturated color, and seems more tightly knit both aromatically and on the palate. However, this is splitting hairs, as this is another stunningly opulent, rich, full-bodied, amazingly concentrated, exotic, flamboyant Petrus that remains remarkably youthful, and in need of 7-8 more years of bottle age. Additionally, the tannins are slightly more elevated, at least from a tactile impression. However, the 1989 looks to be another 30-year wine, with extraordinary equilibrium between all of its component parts. An amazing effort!" Source : Robert Parker
