1990 PichonLongeville-Comtesse de Lalande

[Van The Man]

Lushia -

The '90 Pichon Lalande has been a controversial wine indeed. Many say they Chateau disappointed in '90 and that the '89 is a much better wine.

I happen to be in you camp on this wine. And because the critics continue to rip the wine, it continues to be "reasonably" priced.

I bought a case and then some at $35 or so a bottle and am VERY glad I did. I have a fair stock of '86, '88, '89, '90, '94, '95 and '96 and think that the '90 is a very, very good wine which will drink well over the next 10 years and while the '86, '89, '95 and '96 continue to develop.

Nice note!
