What a nose. Mulberry, iodene, blood and iron. Gorgeous rounded deliciousness. Absolutely delicious fruit and balance. Still so young. Crazy length- blue and blueberry. Just great. Will this ever get old? — 10 years ago

Wonderfully tangy and mulberry and leather and a hint of farmyard. Great acidity and a very spicy finish. — 11 years ago

Smells of leather and dried flowers with a hint of funk. Gorgeous silky cherry, mulberry and leather flavors. Killer stuff. — 12 years ago

Red currant, tobacco, mulberry, light, yet long - just everything I want it to be. Delicious — 10 years ago

1989 vintage. Smokey, luscious and deep. Cedar, leather, cinnamon and mulberry - plum and cherry. On the palate, medium plus body and acidity, great tannic structure - integrated. Good concentration and long finish. Epic and big while still moreish. At its peak. NB: with air, very floral. I suspect this particular bottle was underperforming compared to other bottles from this producer and vintage. — 11 years ago

I bought 6 of these and wish I had bought more. Deeply colored, nearly enough to permanently stain whatever you spill it on. Brambley, licorice mulberry. Quite complex for the price. Unique. — 12 years ago

Like many 1988s. Is starting to open up. Got that Palmer mulberry Merlot quality. Lacks refinement compared to the better Palmer vintages. — 10 years ago

An underrated vintage! Sweet mulberry fruit is hanging on with a savory black tea element. Vibrant at 8 years of age and will easily drink well for another 10-15 years. — 11 years ago
