Score 91/100 · Drink 2002-2020, Robert Parker, Oct 2000

The saturated dark purple/plum-colored 1998 Gigondas Cuvee Prestige La Font de Tonin (70% Grenache and 30% Mourvedre) offers aromas of new oak, minerals, black cherries, and cassis in addition to surprisingly elegant yet powerfully concentrated flavors, with moderate levels of tannin and intensity. This 1998 Gigondas requires 2-3 years of cellaring, and should drink well for two decades. Importers: David Hinkle, North Berkeley Imports, Berkeley, CA; tel.
