Chateau Lagrange,
Drink now,
One of this estate’s superstars (only rivaled by the 1986 and 1996), the 1990 Lagrange exhibits sweet toasty oak notes intermixed with jammy blackberries, cassis, licorice, smoke, and underbrush. Full-bodied with lovely melted tannins, an opulent, fleshy mouthfeel, and loads of purity as well as depth, it has reached full maturity, but is capable of lasting another 10-15 years.

Chateau Margaux,
Ready, but will keep,
Star Wine of the Week
"The 1990 Margaux continues to be the quintessential example of this chateau. In addition to being profoundly concentrated, its ethereal bouquet of sweet black fruits, cedar, spices, flowers, smoke, and vanilla is remarkably well-formed and intense. In the mouth, there is not a hard edge to this classic wine, which is super-concentrated, soft, silky-textured, and opulent. now to 2020" 100/100 pts (Robert-Parker- Bordeaux Book 1998)

Chateau Haut-Brion,
Drink now,
Deep red colour with hints of tawny at the rim. Very expressive bouquet, typical Graves earthy, warm tobacco leaf and cigar box. On the palate a real kernel of sweetness on the mid-palate, lovely texture in the mouth, very well balanced, fresh, with a long, exemplary finish. Ready to drink now with great pleasure but not in any way tiring.

Chateau Lafite Rothschild,
Drink now,
"The 1990 is a ripe, rich, well-textured, yet elegant, mouth-filling style of Lafite. The wine possesses excellent richness, a hint of the unmistakable Lafite perfume of minerals, cedar, graphite and red fruits, medium to full body, moderate weight, admirable richness and overall balance....It should turn out to be a 40-to 50 year Lafite....Anticipated maturity: 2008-2040." 92/100 points.

Chateau Pichon Lalande,
Drink now,
Initially extremely underrated, this is one of the best Pichon-Lalandes for current drinking. With the charming, seductive fruit so typical of the chteau, and all the concentration and balance common to the top 1990s, this has ripe blackcurrant and cedar flavours, and harmonious tannins. Drink now-2008.
