CHÂTEAU GRAND-PUY-LACOSTE 1990 (3)
Pauillac. 5ième Cru Classé
u. 1 x vts. 1 x scraped label. 1 x marked label. 2 x scuffed capsules.
Along with the 1982, 2000, and 2005, the 1990 is one of those monumental Grand Puy Lacostes that you can’t have enough of. Still inky/blue/purple-colored to the rim, it boasts a gorgeously sweet, pure nose of creme de cassis, spring flowers, and a hint of wet rocks. The wine is full-bodied, plush, and expansive with impressive levels of glycerin and purity as well as an endearing texture. This 1990 is evolving at a glacial pace, but the sweetness of the tannins and low acidity ensure a delicious treat whenever a bottle is opened. It should evolve for another 20-25 years. WS 95 WA 96
