Chateau Leoville las Cases Saint-Julien 1988

Saint-Julien, France Wine Advocate 92 points! "This wine continues to show brilliantly, and is certainly a more successful effort than the more renowned and expensive 1989. The color is a dark, murky garnet/purple. The wine shows notes of underbrush, fruitcake, cedar, black cherries, and currants. The wine still shows some moderate tannins in the mouth, but the fruit is sweet, the wine is expansive, and the overall impression is a very symmetrical, medium to full-bodied, rather classic Medoc. Anticipated maturity: Now-2020. Drink 2003-2020." -Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 92 points!
