"The 1989 Haut-Batailley has a gorgeous amount of up-front, satiny fruit, is lush and ripe, as well as long. The palate impression is almost one of sweet, jammy fruit because of its super-richness." -Robert Parker

"An elegant, well-crafted '89. Bubbling over with blackberry, cherry and bark. Full-bodied, very velvety, well-integrated tannins and a ripe berry aftertaste."
