The 1989 Larcis Ducasse has a rather fungal, confected bouquet that suggests some overripe fruit in the vat. It just lacks vigour and seems monotone. The palate is medium-bodied, rustic and confected with dry tannins, very mealy in texture with a green, fungal finish. Sub-par. Bottles should be drunk by now. Tasted at the Larcis Ducasse vertical in Bordeaux.
