Score 88/100 · Drink 2001-2009, Robert Parker, Apr 2001
The dark ruby/purple-colored 1998 offers lush, gorgeous, cherry and blackberry flavors revealing little evidence of oak. The wine is smoky, lush, unbelievably flattering to drink, and, as the French say, is a complete vin de plaisir. Because of its low acidity, this fruit bomb should be drunk over the next 7-8 years.
