Wine Advocate (78)For some reason, Boyd-Cantenac tends to be a hard, sometimes dull wine and the 1986 has these characteristics plus diluted flavors, no doubt caused by the excessive vineyard yields, as well as a lenient selection process at the chateau. This medium-bodied, rather tannic wine should be consumed early in its life because of the lack of extract. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 3/90. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87)The 1978 Labégorce-Zédé comes from a Margaux estate that was subsumed into Labégorce back in 2009. To be frank, I was not expecting a great deal, yet it has a charming nose. Yes, it is filled to the brim with brettanomyces but has lovely meat juice aromas. The palate is very savoury at first and then develops potent espresso-like notes. Fades a little in the glass, but no complaints. Drink soon if you have a bottle. Tasted blind at Medlar restaurant dinner. |
