| Tasting note |
1998 Harvest: The wine-growing season was marked by extremes, with few grapes, burnt by the sun, in a spectacularly hot August and especially gray, rainy weather during the first two weeks of September. Postponing the harvest allowed us to take advantage of th miraculous spell of good weather that followed. That decision was the making of the vintage. When the harvest began on September 21, the grapes were perfectly ripe and healthy.
On the Nose: After a short breathing period, the wine has an intense, full and radiant bouquet, with notes of honeysuckle, orange colored fruits, toasted almonds and hints of iodine sensations.
On the Palate: The creamy chewiness characterizing the vintage is channeled in a direction that is edgy yet embracing, with a wave of aromatic persistence. The finsih - smoky, biting and full of energy - balance it all out. |
