Desiderio 1988

90/100

"The 1988 Merlot reveals a dark ruby/purple color and a huge nose of jammy plums and cassis
intermingled with scents of toast and smoke. It is a beautifully etched, well-delineated, medium to full-bodied Merlot, bursting with fruit yet with surprising structure and firmness for its ripe aroma and taste. Delicious now, it should continue to drink well for 7-8 years. Drink: 1993-2001."

– Robert Parker (Issue: Apr 1993, #186)
