As one might expect, Soutard's 1989 is also a backward wine. Impressively opaque ruby/purple, with a spicy, vanillin-scented, plum, and licorice bouquet, this full-bodied, muscular, densely concentrated wine needs at least 7-10 years of bottle aging. Look for it to last at least 20 or more years. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2020.
