「The 1985 Pichon Lalande is an outstanding wine, but I do not think it reaches the same level of quality as the 1989, 1986, 1983, 1982, or 1978. It has a deep ruby color and a ripe, oaky, curranty bouquet with a trace of herbaceousness. On the palate, the wine is rich, elegant, supple, and not unlike the style of either the 1979 or 1981. It is a lovely wine. Anticipated maturity: Now-2002. Last tasted, 9/90. Robert Parker, 90 points, Drink 1990-2002.」 Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998) より引用。
