Inching closer and closer to the celestial 1990, is the 1989. This cuvee was fabulous when tasted in Bonneau’s cellars, but it closed down after bottling. Possibly even more powerful and tannic than the 1990, as well as more backward, the 1989 looks to be a great classic. It is a Reserve des Celestins to forget for another 3-8 years. It possesses all the characteristics of the 1990, but everything is packed into a more linear personality. Amazing stuff!
Deep crimson and some development on the rim. Really quite similar to the Beaucastel Hommage 1989! Vigorous, high toned, maybe even more refreshing than the Hommage! Very slightly cheesy note. Very flattering ? ripeness and depth and some acid. Perhaps very slightly shorter than the Hommage, or maybe just a drier finish. Very dramatic. Still quite tannic.
