Just gorgeous Lafleur aromatics. On the palate, this has just a bit of the hardness of the vintage with its firm tannins but there is plenty of delicious wild cherry and smoky blackberry fruit underneath. The texture is pure cashmere and the finish is stunning with notes of exotic spices and minerals. A great '88 and it should still improve from here. Wow! 95+

Consistently one of the strongest candidates for the wine of the vintage, Lafleur’s 1988 has a dark plum/ruby color and a gorgeous nose of white flowers intermixed with kirsch liqueur and raspberries. The wine is full-bodied, sweet, round, and beautifully pure, with moderate tannin, medium to full body, and great elegance and complexity. This wine has come around faster than I would have thought. Anticipated maturity: Now-2025. Last tasted, 8/02.
