Wine 1988

1988 Vintage

Many Bordeaux Classified Growths 1988 were reluctant to wait to harvest their 1988 vintage (the rains of the 1987 vintage were still fresh in memory), resulting in occasional lack of maturity in Cabernet Sauvignon. The red Bordeaux wines are virile, firm, and structured, with significant aging potential. They can sometimes lack fruit and appear austere. Exceptional vintage for Sauternes 1988, where numerous Classified Growths reach their peak, thanks to significant acidity that will carry their natural richness for many years to come. In Burgundy 1988, red Burgundy wines are concentrated and tannic, with abundant dry extract, but the fruit may be subdued, making some wines quite austere. White Burgundies are more pleasant, but rather in decline.

Our tips for buying a 1988 wine

The Graves sector handled its 1988 vintage very well, and wines such as Haut Bailly, Haut Brion, la Mission Haut Brion and Pape Clément stand above the rest. More heterogeneous for the Pomerol 1988 and Saint Emilion 1988, though with some fine successes such as Angélus 1988, Tertre Roteboeuf 1988 and Clinet 1988. The white Bordeaux wines are good.

A very fine 1988 vintage in Champagne (superb pinot noir and pinot meunier). Among the 1988 Rhône wines, the appellations Côte-Rôtie 1988, Hermitage 1988 and Saint Joseph 1988 are particularly successful. This vintage will moreover remain etched as an exceptional one for white Hermitage. In Alsace 1988, one can seek out the Sélections de Grains Nobles, for after a wet autumn, the month of November was the sunniest in a century and a half!

Tips for buying a 1988 vintage wine: focus primarily on 1988 Pessac Léognan reds or whites (very successful). The Sauternes wines are magnificent and should be prioritised as an anniversary wine (they will keep for another 10 years). In 1988 red Burgundy, the tannins can sometimes be surprising if the wines are still intensely coloured. Superb Champagne Krug 1988 (delightfully vinous). In the Rhône Valley, look rather for a red wine from Côte-Rôtie or a white Hermitage. Lovely Sélections de Grains Nobles in Alsace.
