Ratings & Tasting Notes

Like several of the DRC '98s, the appearance is somewhat cloudy. There is a hint of funk to the otherwise spicy dark berry fruit aromas that are displaying noticeable secondary development. By contrast there is no such issue with the still robust and muscular flavors that possess good if not special complexity on the still moderately structured finale. While there are still noticeable tannins in evidence I would be inclined to be drinking this up over the next decade as I am concerned that the nose may become less attractive with extended bottle age.

Bright red-ruby. Perfumed, spicy aromas of cassis, cherry, raspberry and flowers; fresher and more tangy than the Echezeaux. Juicy, vibrant and high-pitched, with tight, precise flavors framed by strong acidity. Finishes fairly tannic and long, with a hint of youthful austerity. I like this.
