1989 Chateau Leoville Poyferre St. Julien (750ml)
91 Points
"The 1989 Léoville Poyferré is a vintage that I have not tasted for a number

of years. It has a very attractive bouquet of red fruit mixed with

peppercorns, pine, cedar and orange peel, showing signs of youth at 30

years of age. The palate is medium-bodied with a rounded opening and

quite extravagant for the growing season. Maybe that is a facet that I

coveted more when I last tasted the wine; now it just obscures the terroir

and typicité somewhat. With aeration it improves and gains length,

although I would have liked a little more precision on the charcoal tinged

finish. Tasted from an ex-cellar bottle at the château.
