Score 85-86/100 · Drink 1998-2008, Robert Parker, Apr 1999
This wine appears to be at an awkward stage, with the oak dominating its personality. Additionally, the tannin is dry. However, there is a healthy, saturated ruby/purple color, good weight, and plenty of structure and richness. The wood must become better integrated if this wine is to achieve harmony among its diverse component parts. Judgment reserved.
