Pessac-Leognan Notes

Interested to see this come up in your tasting. We drank the 88 a few weeks ago, along with the 89 at the same dinner. I think both bottles were damaged. For me the 88 was completely scalped; none of the juice I hoped for and you report. The 89 was less damaged but problematic all the same, very tough and almost no fruit showing, but still with some interesting tarry depths that stood up well to the sanglier.

Glad to hear I may hope for more from my remaining bottles!

I'm sadly not holding what sounds like an excellent 95, when it became available to me the price was creeping up over $US35, and I gave it the pass. Too bad!
