| Tasting Note | RP 93/100 This saturated purple-colored 1998 offers sumptuous aromas of prunes, blueberries, overripe black cherries, chocolate, coffee, and spicy new oak. Full-bodied, opulent, and expressive, this flamboyant/ostentatious effort is crammed with glycerin and extract. The tannin is sweet in this accessible, multilayered 1998. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2022. WS 94/100 This is very fresh and multidimensional on the nose and palate. Aromas of blackberry, grilled meat and fresh mushrooms follow through to a full body, with a solid core of firm yet silky tannins and a chocolate, berry and meaty finish. Luscious and opulent. Tight and beautiful.—'88/'98 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008). Best after 2011. NM 92-94/100 An lush exotic floral nose with wonderful raisin notes and black smoky fruits. Well-integrated with balance and style. Smoky cherry fruits and tobacco. A sophisticated complex wine. Excellent.
