Tasting Notes

La Grande Dame 1990 offers highly expressive toasted smoky opening notes: gunflint, coffee and crusty bread. Subtle nut aromas follow: hazelnuts and roasted cashews. The unique complexity of this wine is then rounded off by luxuriously warm notes of wax, honey and even vanilla.

In the mouth, the opening is taut, the texture rich and the structure well-defined, making this an ample and generous wine. Like a sunbeam, the finish is long and expressive and completes the vintage’s signature. The extended aging of this vintage brings depth and power to the wine.
