Tasting Notes

Robert Parker 92

The saturated medium-to-dark ruby-colored 1998 Clos de Vougeot has superb talcum powder, rose, spice, and juicy blackberry aromatics. On the palate it has huge sweetness in the attack, with black pit fruits and cassis flavors. It then slams shut on rugged, hard tannins that will most likely never soften. [Pierre Rovani, 28/10/2000]

Vinous 91-94

Ruby-red. Sappy, sweet aromas of black cherry and licorice. Very backward and closed on the palate, even tough today, with major, tongue-dusting tannins. Currently dominated by its powerful structure, but the black fruit, herbal and mint flavors show superb sweetness. This may need a good decade of bottle aging. [Stephen Tanzer, 03/01/2000]
