88-91 Allen Meadows - Burghound

"Classically elegant Clos St. Jacques nose of ripe, dark, earthy, wonderfully elegant fruit that exudes complexity and fine detail followed by rich, supple, rather forward, almost easy flavors and a lovely finishing sweetness. The tannins are very ripe and round and the only nit here is that this seems to be a bit lower in acidity than the best of this range. I doubt this will be especially long-lived, at least by the usual standards of this wine."
