Perfect point in its evolution for me. Still some primary fruit mixed with the graphite leather and black pepper.

One of my favorite Cos yet! Rich dark fruit, wild depth, power. #graileysfinewines

Less interesting than 1990 but ok. Somewhat lacking in complexity

Went from never having a birth year wine to drinking 89 like a boss. I don't know if I love it enough to ever pay for what it costs, still too much lush fruit and not enough of everything else. Beautiful none the less.
