An excellent vintage with similar attributes to the 1989 but certainly not an identical twin. In general, the Merlots were in remakable condition with some of the highest levels of sugar ever recorded. The later ripening Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were small and thick, with a concentration of juice and colouring matter.
