The 1986 Fonbadet is certainly the best wine made at this potentially excellent vineyard since the 1982. There is abundant chewy fruit, noticeable muscle and tannin, and impressive length. The wine should come into its own by the early nineties, but last 10-12 years thereafter. Given the extract levels this wine can possess, an elevated use of new oak casks at this property might prove beneficial. Anticipated maturity: Now-2003. Last tasted, 4/89.
