I've received a case of these about two months ago. Upon opening my first bottle (Saturday), I discovered it to be quite tight. With about 4 hours of decanting, however, this opened up **beautifully**, and is one of the finest Bordeaux wines I've ever encountered. It was a gift, and the first thing I did (after saying thank you), was go to winesearcher.com to see what it was worth. Nothing from that year showed up. Other years listed pretty cheap, so I didn't realize I had anything too great. That is, not until Saturday.
Since drinking it, I checked it out on winespectator.com, discovering a rating of 95. But I am still unable to find any more 1989's for sale (winesearcher.com, winezap.com). Does anyone have any personal experience with this wine or know of any place that is selling it? Is it not uncommon to find that certain Bordeaux wines from 1989 are not available? I assume there has to be more of these cases somewhere!!
Thanks in advance
