Score 87/100 · Drink 1993-2000, Robert Parker, Feb 1993

The 1988 La Gaffeliere is a well-made, elegant, understated, charming, well-balanced wine that has avoided the excesses of tannin so prevalent in many 1988s. The interplay between the herb-tinged raspberry fruit and new oak is admirable. Anticipated maturity: Now- 2000.
