Score 88/100 · Drink 1993-2003, Robert Parker, Feb 1993

The 1990 offers a forward, smoky, sweet oaky nose intertwined with bold and lavish aromas of blackcurrants. Medium-bodied, with low acidity, light tannins, and layers of ripe fruit, this finesse-styled wine should provide superlative drinking for more than a decade. It is the finest Haut-Batailley since 1982.

Medium-garnet color. Aromas of plums, berries and chocolate. Medium-bodied, with medium, slightly dry tannins and an astringent finish. Not very interesting for this estate.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. 7,500 cases made. James Suckling, WIne Spectator 2000.
