Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 1997
The precocious, sweet, jammy 1989 La Turque's smoky, licorice, and black-raspberry aromas, as well as its phenomenal richness, make for another extraordinary tasting experience. Full-bodied, dense, and thick, this wine possesses the essence of black cherries. Still youthful, it is already gorgeous to drink. Anticipated maturity: now-2012.

Wine Spectator, November 1995
A bit out of character for La Turque, with meaty and tobacco notes, but it is still rich and spicy. The earliest-drinking of the crus in this big vintage; try in 1996.--Guigal Côte-Rôtie vertical. 700 cases made.
