Score 86/100 · Drink 1990, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

This is a very good Sauternes for the vintage -- rich, round, open knit, with a great deal of juicy, sweet, candied fruit -- but the absence of botrytis results in a wine lacking in complexity and coming across as plump and succulent, but not terribly interesting. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 11/90.
