92 Robert Parker
The fully mature 1986 La Turque has a bouquet of smoke, new saddle leather, roasted herbs, meat, and sweet, jammy black fruit. Medium- to full-bodied, ripe, and intense, without the colossal richness of the finest vintages, this still youthful wine should continue to age well. Anticipated maturity: now-2006. Last tasted 11/95.
92 Wine Spectator
The most delicate of the crus in this vintage, showing lovely tobacco and floral notes and plenty of toasty oak on the palate.
