"Notes of blackberries, cassis, flowers, and subtle French oak jump from the glass of this opaque purple-colored wine. The wine possesses more length, richness, and completeness than the 1997 (as hard as that is to believe). It is deep, full-bodied, and sumptuous. Low acidity, ripe tannin, and a wealth of fruit suggest drinking it over the next 15 years. Incredible!"
