About the 1989 vintage in Pessac-Léognan: A legendary year

The 1989 vintage of Bordeaux is widely considered one of the greatest if not the greatest in a fight with 1990 and 1982 but it is all a matter of taste. 1989 offers generally perfectly balanced wines in a classic Bordeaux style.

Exceptional provenance : These bottles come from a cellar of a great Swiss wine enthusiast and collector. We have acquired the complete collection containing more than 200 bottles of mainly French and Italian wines. The bottles have all been preserved following their purchase en primeur or shortly after their marketing on site, in a natural cellar buried under a 16th century convent. A damp cellar, which is why some labels are very worn. The levels are generally excellent or perfect and the most "fragile" bottles testify to conservation in total darkness for more than 30 years!
