"Red-ruby. Spicy aromas of cherry, leather, bitter chocolate and tar, along with graphite and currant notes that reminded me of claret. Sweet and mouthfilling; chewier than the above but also more obviously oaky. Finishes with excellent persistence and a touch of vanillin oak. The grenache was especially outstanding in '98, said Bru, while in '99 it was the syrah that outperformed."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
