All about the nose here, complex dried cherry, spice mineral, earth, forest, with fine structure, dry extract notes are cocoa-y and textural. — 9 years ago
Beautiful, sappy and bouncy cherry fruit along with notes of truffle and earth, spice, — 9 years ago
Amazingly dark in color, little browning, plump and spicy, like booze saturated black cherries, a little loose on the tail with some taffeta textured tannins, but a solid 35 yr old! — 9 years ago
The 1990 Baumard is still one big baby Huey of a sweet wine! Intense and unyielding in it's richness, basil and honey, tropical pineapple, solid core in the middle, could go years more! — 9 years ago
Worth the hype! Delicious Champagne Umami, floral -hay-earth! — 9 years ago
Showing it's age in color and nose, bretty with brown sugar aroma, palate is better with some stewed fruit and cedar — 9 years ago

Oldster talking here.... when I started tasting wines from Chavignol back in the 80s young wines did not taste like this, but this is gooooood! We used to have to wait for this opulence! Now here it is in a 2015. Good and not good . But really this is showing well and I think will be great for another 10 years. Question: can it hold like 89 and 90 Chavignol could? — 8 years ago
