Wine Advocate
Review Date: 12/1996The saturated purple-colored 1989 La Mouline is an explosively rich wine, with its profound perfume of violets, black raspberries, and creamy, toasty new oak. Very full-bodied, with a dreamy opulence, gobs of fruit, an unctuous texture, and powerful finish, this wine manages to balance intensity with great elegance. (RP)

Saturated deep red. Roasted redcurrant, raspberry, tobacco and warm earth on the nose, along with an exhilarating component of exotic spices; this reminded me of the extraordinary '89 Haut-Brion and La Mission. Thick, dense, huge and sweet but with excellent verve. A fleshy La Mouline that's packed with flavor. Finishes extremely long and sweet, with substantial ripe, chewy tannins. (ST)

Velvety, concentrated and beautifully balanced. The raspberry flavor and vanilla oak marry seamlessly and ride effortlessly over rich tannins. (TM)

Very deep. Medium evolution. Very very rich and exciting. Great depth of flavour. Not that intense. Hints of liquorice. Lovely, dense, rich and melded. A whole wine. 19+/20 points (JR)
