This bottle of 1989 Climens replicates the stunning showing at the château the previous year. Yellow plum and saffron soars on the electrifying nose, just breathtaking delineation and vibrancy. The palate is likewise brimming over with energy, very intense yet brilliantly poised with a purity on the finish that I feel that Climens rarely achieved in that era. Killer. Tasted at the 1989 Bordeaux dinner at 67 Pall Mall.

The 1989 Climens is medium amber-gold in color. It opens with fantastically fragrant saffron, jasmine tea, chamomile, and preserved lemons notes, plus suggestions of tobacco leaf, dried mandarin peel, and candied ginger. The palate is atomic, exploding in the mouth with profound citrus and spice layers, finishing with fantastic length and freshness. The residual sugar is 126 grams per liter.
