Winemaker's Notes:

"Palmer's 1989 is one of the vintage's great successes. The wineexhibits a dark ruby/purple color, a sweet, jammy nose of black fruits,intermingled with floral scents, licorice, and a touch of truffles.Full-bodied and supple, with low acidity, copious quantities of ripefruit and glycerin, and a medium to full-bodied, concentrated,harmonious, seamless texture, this is a gorgeous Palmer. It may turnout similar to this estate's brilliant 1962 and 1953. Althoughapproachable, it will improve for another decade, and last for 20-25years."95 pointsRobert Parker, Wine Advocate # 109, Feb 1997"Deepruby color at the center, with a red edge.
