What we hold of the 1990
  • 1 bottle · 100/100 points

Rhône in 1990.

The richer of the two, with higher alcohol and more immediate flesh. Outstanding at Châteauneuf.

Made only in years Jean-Louis Chave judges exceptional, from the best barrels of the hill, and named after the painter Bernard Cathelin. Around two hundred cases each time, and every vintage offered here scores a perfect hundred.

Condition is described before anything travels: fill level, label, capsule and original case, bottle by bottle. If you have not bought an older bottle before, our note on fill levels explains what those words mean and what they are worth. The 1990 leaves storage once, insured and temperature-controlled, for your home, your cellar or your account at a bonded warehouse in Switzerland.
