Score 92/100 · Drink 1996-2012, Robert Parker, Jan 1997
The 1988 Le Greal is a great wine, as well as a blockbuster Hermitage, bursting with smoky, roasted, jammy, cassis fruitiness, some attractive vanillin, oaky components, and gobs of highly extracted, rich fruit flavors that can only come from low yields and old vines. Anticipated maturity: now-2012. Last tasted 6/96.
