Score 15/20 · Drink 2008-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, Aug 2007

Thick, sweet and chunky on the nose. Slightly austere with slight green notes on the palate. Not very subtle, and very chewy. Ungraceful. Not knit at all at the moment. (JR)

Score 90/100 · Drink 2001-2015, Robert Parker, Apr 2001

A wine of beautiful purity, symmetry, and grace, this complex, dark purple-colored 1998 reveals abundant quantities of black fruits infused with notions of new oak and graphite, medium to full body, sweet tannin, admirable elegance, and beautiful richness. Anticipated maturity: now-2015
