"Ruby-red. Exotic aromas of red and dark fruits, iron, dried flowers,

cured meat and tobacco are strongly reminiscent of a top vintage of

Chateau Haut-Brion. Luscious cherry and cassis flavors display a

superb balance of depth and structure, offering noteworthy power but

a weightless quality that is simply uncanny. Candied flowers, smoky

minerals and vanilla bean add complexity and extend through an

endless finish. I'd love to sneak this into a tasting of 1998 Saint-Emilion

and Graves wines in ten years or so.
